10:00 CET - The first semi-final between the world number one and tournament favourite Aryna Sabalenka and Elina Svitolina is underway! This has the potential to be box-office, so don't look away...

08:00 CET - Good morning and welcome back to the Tennis Tracker on women's semi-final day at the Australian Open!

The first semi-final begins at 09:30 CET, which pits two players against each other who have yet to lose in 2026. World number one and two-time champion Aryna Sabalenka faces Elina Svitolina, with the former continuing her quest to recapture her crown and get her hands on a fifth Grand Slam title, while the latter is looking to reach her first major final.

Sabalenka leads the head-to-head 5-1, having won their last four meetings.

The second semi-final sees Elena Rybakina clash with Jessica Pegula. Rybakina dumped out Iga Swiatek in her quarter-final, with Pegula downing Amanda Anisimova.

The pair have faced off six times before, with both winning three times. However, they have only played twice in the last two years, with Rybakina coming out victorious at the Billie Jean King Cup and WTA Finals in 2025.

Incredibly, none of the semi-finalists have dropped a set at this year's Australian Open!
