 Yggdj Fjontek vs Marduk Kostruk is the first semi-final for the ladies Indian wellers for 2024 and both have had different roads to get to this stage. Kostruk ended the tournament as the 31st seed and we're going to buy in the first round. In the second round should take on Hontama, there's no problem getting through in straights, 6-4-6-2. In the third round she was supposed to take on the number 7 seed Vondrusava, but Vondrusava had to pull out due to personal reasons, handing Kostruk the walkover. In the fourth round should take on the 22 seed Pavlya Tchenkova, who had just beaten Adaj Mayer in the previous rounds. There's no problem getting through 6-4-6-1 to advance to the quarter-final. In the quarter-finals Kostruk would take on Potipov at the 28th seed, who she's had some heated battles with in the past. And after an easy first set she had to fight through to win 6-love 7-5 to make it through to the semis. Fjontek ended the tournament as the number 1 seed and would get a buy in the first round. In the second round should take on Colin, there's no problem getting through in straights, 6-3-6-love. In the third round she'd take on the 26th seed Noskova, who had beaten her at the Australian Open a couple months ago. This was a totally different story, with Fjontek winning easily 6-4-6-love. In the fourth round she'd take on Putin-Sever, who had taken out Madison Keyes in the previous round. But again, no problem for Fjontek getting through in straights, 6-1-6-2 to advance to the quarter-finals. In the quarter-finals Fjontek would take on the wildcard Wozniakki, who had had a real resurgence this week. And after going down early Fjontek would fight back in the first, with Wozniakki eventually retiring 6-4-1-love retirement. These two have only played the one time before, that was three years ago, with the French open, with Fjontek getting the straight sets win. Fjontek has a much better player now, and of course after that great run she had in Australia, with like her chances against the world number one this time. But Fjontek's going to win this one, she needs to keep her emotions in check, and she also needs to hang on to the lead. She was up so far in the second set against Potapova, she needs to make sure that she doesn't give away a lead if she can get one against the world number one. If Fjontek's going to win this one, she needs to get up to a better start. Wozniakki was up 4-1, and maybe if she wasn't hurt, Fjontek could have lost that first set, so she needs to get up to a better start, because we know Fjontek can take her chances, especially in that first set against Potapova, if that's going to be the case. Very fun matchup in this one, Fjontek versus Kostjuk, of course Kostjuk isn't super random, but I have to go with Fjontek in this one in straight sets. I reckon it might be close, but Fjontek in straight sets, she is the world number one for a reason, and she looks so good this week, but let me know in the comments below, who's going to make the final.
