Players to Watch
- Anisa TATLIEVA — Ruthless efficiency in the quarterfinals, conceding just two games (6–1, 6–1). First‑strike patterns and disciplined depth stand out.
- Moksha TIYYAGURA — Advanced via walkover in the quarters; earlier benefited from a bye. Fresh legs could be an asset in a tight semifinal.
- Shanelle DSOUZA — Sharpened by a tiebreak in R16 before a QF walkover. The blend of pace and margin management should be pivotal against a clean striker like Elayyan.
- Jaslene ELAYYAN — Commanding 6–1, 6–1 in the quarters. Backhand direction‑change and return positioning have been reliable trends so far.
Key Numbers So Far

Tactical Themes on Abu Dhabi Hard Courts
The hard courts are rewarding early aggression and reliable serve returns. Players who establish depth on the first ball and redirect pace off the backhand wing have found consistent success. Expect compact backswings and purposeful first‑serve placement to remain decisive in today’s semifinals.
