Kasatkina Rallies Past Keys
2017 champion Daria Kasatkina bounced back after dropping the first set to beat Madison Keys in the quarterfinal on Friday.
The world no. 8, who had gone into the contest with a 1-8 record against the American, closed the gap on her with a 6-7 (5-7), 6-4, 6-2 victory.
Kasatkina held 24 breaking opportunities in the match and she capitalised on 10 of them. Meanwhile, Keys held 13 break points, with the Russian saving six of them.
Kasatkina improved to 8-8 for the season. She has already featured in a final this year in Adelaide-2, but she did not win matches in a row in the subsequent tournaments. However, she is back in form in Charleston.
The 25-year-old kicked off the tournament with a 6-2, 6-1 win over Madison Brengle in the second round and then she edged out Bernarda Pera 6-3, 7-6 (7-3) in third round.
Kasatkina has a good record in Charleston. She beat Jelena Ostapenko for the title six years ago and was a quarterfinalist in 2016 and 2018. She is back in the semifinals; can she make it to another final?
Jabeur v Kasatkina Prediction and Tip
Jabeur has dominated the recent meetings between the two and is expected to continue her dominance. Kastkina won’t be easy to beat and may take the contest to the third set, but given how Jabeur is playing right now, she should edge past the Russian and reach a second final in a row in Charleston.
