Elina Svitolina orchestrated a brilliant comeback at the National Bank Open 2026 in Toronto, overcoming sixteenth-seeded Ekaterina Alexandrova 3-6, 6-0, 6-3 in a gripping 93-minute quarterfinal. Powered by clean, first-strike tennis and heavy serves, Alexandrova seized control early to take the opening set 3-6. However, the ninth-seeded Svitolina completely flipped the script in the second frame. Tightening her baseline defense and capitalizing on shorter second deliveries, the 2017 champion blanked her opponent 6-0 to level the match. Svitolina carried that relentless momentum into the decider, storming out to a 5-1 lead. Though Alexandrova fought back to 5-3, Svitolina held firm and broke in the final game to secure her 10th consecutive WTA 1000 match win, punching her ticket to the semifinals.

Iga Swiatek delivered a masterclass at the National Bank Open 2026 in Toronto, routing fifteenth-seeded Diana Shnaider 6-2, 6-1 in a swift 64-minute quarterfinal on Centre Court at Sobeys Stadium. Seventh-seeded Swiatek completely neutralized her opponent with relentless baseline pressure, exceptional court coverage, and near-impenetrable service games where she dropped only three points on her first serve. Shnaider struggled to find any sustained rhythm against the former world number one, hindered by unforced errors and failing to convert any of her break point chances. Meanwhile, Swiatek capitalized on five breaks of serve and dominated the statistics to comfortably march into just her second semifinal of the 2026 season
