WTO Semifinals
Bondar and Grabher are in the final
On Saturday, Anna Bondar (No. 1) and Darja Semenistaja (No. 3) delivered a high-quality semifinal marked by long rallies and tactical finesse. In the tiebreak of the third set, it was Hungary’s Bondar who kept her cool and now has her sights set on a second WTO title, following her 2021 victory.
Julia Grabher advanced to the final in more dominant fashion. The unseeded Austrian defeated Susan Bandecchi (SUI) in straight sets — another impressive performance from this tournament’s surprise package.
In doubles, Jesika Maleckova and Miriam Skoch (CZE), the No. 3 seeds, impressed with their experience and strong teamwork in a confident win over Detuic/Kraus. Their place in the final was never in serious doubt. Whether they can claim the title will be decided on Sunday.
