Bronzetti on a Roll
Italy’s Lucia Bronzetti is set to compete in the first grass-court semifinal of her career.
It has been a decent campaign from her in Bad Homburg, a straight-set win over Julia Grabher was followed by a three-set slogfest with Mayar Sherif. Her path eased thereafter in the form of a 6-4. 6-3 win over Varvara Gracheva.
2023 has been a decent year for Bronzetti. She is World No. 65 after peaking at the 50th spot back in January. It has not been a consistent spell on the whole, seeing that she went through a seven-match losing streak before finding her bearings.
Lucia emerged as the runner-up in ITF Croissy-Beaubourg, later followed by a semifinal showing in Florence Challenger. Next, she won her maiden WTA title in Rabat – which propelled her back into the top 100 after dropping out briefly.
Now, she has a solid chance of reaching that peak again – provided she can beat the best player on the tour right now.

Swiatek Conquers her Grass Fears
Iga Swiatek, ahead of the Bad Homburg Open, admitted that grass makes her feel uncomfortable. But like any great player, she has done well this week to achieve some mastery of the surface.
After a three-set hiccup in the opener against Tatjana Maria, the Pole beat Jil Teichmann (6-3, 6-1) and Anna Blinkova (6-3, 6-2) with relative ease.
This also puts the current French Open champion a step closer to her first grass-court final. She is now 38-6, with titles from Stuttgart and Doha and runner-up trophies from Dubai and Madrid.
Nothing further needs to be said of the current World No. 1; she is an ace on all courts, and by the looks of it, she is getting there on grass too.
Swiatek v Bronzetti Prediction and Tip
Swiatek is the clear favourite here, given her momentum, form, and overall experience. The troubles of grass are still there but her confidence this week should help her out – especially given Bronzetti’s shaky season.
Tips:
- Low-Risk Tip: Swiatek to win: 1/8
- Moderate Risk Tip: Over 19.5 games in the match: 4/5
