Players will fight for a spot in the championship round on Day 6 of the Wuhan Open 2024. Aryna Sabalenka and Coco Gauff will renew their rivalry as they will lock horns in the first singles semifinal of the day.
This will be their eighth career meeting, and the first since their Australian Open showdown back in January, which went Sabalenka's way. Both of them have their own winning streak going on at the moment. Gauff triumphed at last week's China Open and has continued her good run of form in Wuhan. She's currently on a nine-match winning streak.
Sabalenka, meanwhile, is the two-time defending champion there. She has never lost a match at the venue and has a 15-0 record. However, one of those streaks is about to come to an end. Home fans will be elated to see at least one player in the final as Zheng Qinwen and Wang Xinyu will duke it out in the other singles semifinal.
Zheng's record this year makes her the favorite, though Wang has shined in her role as the underdog all week. Jessica Pegula's singles campaign came to an early end but she's still thriving in doubles.
She has partnered with Asia Muhammad this week, and the duo will face Leylah Fernandez and Aldila Sutjiadi in the first match of the day. Katerina Siniakova and Ekaterina Alexandrova will bring the day to a close with their semifinal duel against Irina Khromacheva and Anna Danilina.
On that note, here's a look at the schedule for Day 6 of the Wuhan Open:
