Doha, Qatar-Jelena Ostaphenko completed the three-year reign of IGA Sweetch at the Qatar Open in the semifinals.
1 No. The No-Ranned Ostapinko-3, -1-5 won the margin and improved his record against Sweetch, the second. Latvian is the only active player who has faced Sweetch at least twice and put a winning record.
“I was quite confident that I would beat him … I know how to play against him,” said Ostap “I’m happy with the way I am handling my emotions this week.”
The former French Open Champion will play against his ninth career WTA title and first in one year, Yekaterina Alexandrava or Amanda Anisimova.
Ostapenco also defeated Jasmine Paulini in the second round, and for the first time in his career, he won two against the top five players in a single tournament.
Sweetch was defeated in Doha in 16 matches and had a third defeat of the year.
