Entering as the 35th seed into the Wimbledon semifinal, Bencic is buzzing with great form. Since having been on maternity leave up to April, she grabbed a WTA title at Bad Homburg and kept climbing the ranks. Making the rounds for the fourth time, she defeated Mirra Andreeva 7‑6, 7‑6 for her maiden run into the Grand Slam semi-finals since the 2019 US Open. Social media and many pundits have cheered for "The Last Mum Standing" in the SW19 draw. Working with her family and her team, Bencic gave credits for the extraordinary energy behind her comeback in some of her interviews. She has been consistent on Wimbledon courts, favoring a backhand-slice approach on grass, and in tight tiebreakers, she has displayed a large measure of grit. Going into the semi-finals, her momentum and mental strength are top priorities.
🇵🇱 Iga Swiatek
Entering into this semifinal trying to book her spot in what would be her first Wimbledon final, World No. 4 Iga Swiatek had a 2025 grass season that included runner-up finishes in Bad Homburg and strong performances at Wimbledon. She has won all matches except for one in straight sets, having dropped a set to Caty McNally in his third-round match. She then defeated Liudmila Samsonova 6–2, 7–5 in the quarterfinals, demonstrating a strong resolve on grass. Now standing at 8-1 for the season on grass courts, Swiatek mentioned that, through enhanced movement and point construction, she's become more comfortable on grass. This is a transition from clay-court dominance to consistent performance on all surfaces, an action that has earned her many positive comments from commentators and fans alike.
