Ann Li vs Xinyu Wang prediction
Ann Li reached the semi-finals in Cleveland after a three set win over Elsa Jacquemot in the quarter-finals. Li seemed to be breezing through the match as she went a set and a double break up in the second, but Jacquemot staged a stunning fightback with three breaks of serve to level the match up. Despite her level dropping in the second set, Li recovered brilliantly to dominate the decider as she did the first, winning 6-1 5-7 6-1.
Xinyu Wang dug deep to book a place in the semi-finals as she beat Viktorija Golubic in three sets. Golubic was up a set and a break, having already beaten Katie Boulter earlier in the day, but Wang reeled off three straight games to take the second set and again came from a break down in the third to make a fourth semi-final of the campaign.
Wang leads the head-to-head 2-0 after two wins on hard court in the first three months of 2022. The Chinese player won their first-round match at the Australian Open in straight sets and did the same in round one of this very tournament two months later. This is likely to be the most competitive meeting between the pair so far, but Wang is the favourite.
