Kostyuk (No 26) beat Noskova (No 13) 7-6 (1), 6-0, won the tiebreak 7-1, and took the second set without dropping a game. Ten wins in a row, ten matches on clay without a loss, and a semi-final against Potapova. McNally said she didn't want to play her in Rome. On this evidence, nobody does.

Hayley Baptiste and Aryna Sabalenka, Madrid 2026

Baptiste (No 30) beat Sabalenka (No 1) 2-6, 6-2, 7-6 (6), saved six match points, and won on the first she got. No player from the world's top five has reached the semi-finals in Madrid. The draw has been turned upside down – and a 24-year-old American from Washington D.C. did most of the turning.
