Updates from SW19 as we reach the semi-final stage
It’s really hot in London today, but these are some supremely fit athletes, so I doubt the temperature has much effect on the outcome.
So who’s going to win today? It’s hard to look beyond Sabalenka and Swiatek; I’d actually be more inclined to back a shock if the matches were reversed, because the match-ups as they are seem to favour the favourites. Anisimova, I fear, does what Sabalenka does, just less well, while Swiatek might need hitting off the court, something Anisimova is better capable of than Bencic. But both are live dogs.
