Semi-finals - WTA Finals - Singapore

In the semi finals of the WTA finals Simona Halep beat Agnieszka Radwanska in straight sets. 

To be fair Aga was very fortunate to get out of the Round Robin stage with just one win. 

So it was always going to be a tough ask to expect Aga to beat an in form Simona Halep. It was a routine win for Simona where she will face Serena Williams. 

Serena Williams beat her new best friend Caroline Wozniacki in three sets. It was a tops turvy match  and it was the last couple points of the in tiebreak that Serena was able to take control and win the third set and the match. 

I am not sure that being Serena's new best friend is helping Caroline who has a difficult year both personally and professionally. 

But in the latter part of the season Caroline improved and made the final of the US Open where she was beaten by Serena. 

Caroline is still young I can now see her winning a couple of Grand Slams in the next couple of years. 

Serena has so far had an indifferent tournament and hopefully this win will inspire her to play better tennis in the final.
