From the first match against Jule Niemeier, Bencic needed three sets in each round. In the semi-finals on Saturday, she only won after 3:07 hours against the Greek Maria Sakkari 6: 7 (6: 8), 6: 4, 6: 4. Jabeur only had to go the full distance in the quarterfinals against Aljaksandra Sasnowitsch (Belarus), who had previously beaten Andrea Petkovic.
