Simona Halep vs Belinda Bencic • Dubai 2019

Simona. Toast. Good for Bencic. I know of a guy in Ireland who will be pleased.

Elina/Belinda final will be a good one. Maybe.

...after Sabalenka's match Bella Belinda can do anything. ...Halep is too much

Halep plays 4% below her career win percentage on this day.
Bencic on the other hand plays 4% above her career win percentage on this day.
Bencic over her career on this day has beaten Garcia, Osaka, Wozniacki, and Svitolina.
Halep could be added to that group today. I would expect it to go over 20.5 games and Bencic +4.5 games. With the possibility of an upset win. Should be an excellent match

Bencic impressive yesterday. But Halep today.

Horrible beginnings. Awful serving there. Yuck.

Appreciate the belief from Bencic.

Bencic's emotions will get the better of her I think. And Simona will capitalize on it.

She's managed it quite well for a while now. Thanks to Cahill.

Simona is the better mover. By far.

Just wish she had a serve!

Belinda had other thoughts :p

Trouble

What a miss!

I am truly impressed by Bencic's game here. She's improving continually throughout this tournament. She believes.

Overcooked an easy open court put away. HORRENDOUS

I mean, I'm a bit mean with this trademark thing, but for a player at her level, it's baffling she has a couple of those every week.

Whaaat is happening here?? ?
Ok, im turning on pc to watch the match

Simona can't trust her serve. It's in her head.

No offense Mimi, but it's Belinda.

Simona. Toast.

Ooook I've got to watch the replay of this

One of your gals.

You made my day bencic

Very agresive Benilda.....

Halep will settle in and take this. (I hope.)

Going to be quite physical here.

We are up for a treat....quality tennis ....Joy for the eye ?

Simich can be stroppy too ?

Looks cool......agree
