The German, who had eliminated Madison Keys, number 6, in the previous round, was looking to become the oldest Grand Slam semi-finalist of the Open era.\n\nSiegemund&#8217;s ability to change the depth, speed, angles, and effects of her shots frustrated Sabalenka, especially in the final set.\n\nDespite the challenges, Sabalenka remained calm and managed to impose her game in crucial moments, securing her place in the semifinals.\n\nIn the semifinals, Sabalenka will face the winner of the match between Amanda Anisimova and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova.\n\nThis triumph marks a significant milestone for Sabalenka, who is seeking her first Wimbledon title and to continue her impressive performance in Grand Slam tournaments.\n\nSince 2022, Sabalenka has shown a remarkable ability to recover in major tournaments, with an 11-3 record after losing the first set. Before that date, her record was 2-13.\n\nSabalenka improved to 12-1 in the Grand Slam tournaments quarterfinals, with her only loss at the French Open last year against Mirra Andreeva. That is the second-best record of any woman in the Open era after Chris Evert.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In an emotional day at Wimbledon, Aryna Sabalenka managed to secure her place in the semifinals after a challenging match against Laura Siegemund.
