If you had any doubt if Simona Halep could get back to her best tennis, now you have the answer. The Romanian storms in the Madrid semi-final after demolishing Coco Vandeweghe 6-1 6-1. The match lasted less than 1 hour even if there was a rain delay. Simona won 55 points vs. Coco’s 31; the Romanian committed just three unforced errors in the entire match (actually there was no match).

Defending champion @Simona_Halep is first through to @MutuaMadridOpen Semifinals!

Next vs. Sevastova

Simona will face Anastasija Sevastova in the semi-final. The head to head is 3-2 for the Romanian that leads 2-1 on clay. Halep is the clear favorite to reach the final (and probably to win the tournament).
