Tatjana Maria, the German 54th-ranked player, reaches the WTA London semi-finals on grass with mixed recent form, including losses to Rebecca Masarova and Elise Mertens but victories over Leonie Fruhvirtova and Dalila El Jardi. This marks the first meeting between Maria and her British opponent Liudmila Miyazaki, with no prior head-to-head history between the two players. Maria will look to capitalize on her ranking advantage and grass-court experience as she competes for a spot in the final.

Liudmila Miyazaki, the British 292nd-ranked qualifier, has earned her place in the WTA London semi-finals on grass despite limited recent match activity, with her last recorded outing a loss to Magdalena Sawangkaew. The significant ranking gap between Miyazaki and her German opponent Tatjana Maria underscores the upset nature of her run to this stage. Playing at home in London on grass, Miyazaki will attempt to continue her unexpected tournament progress against the higher-seeded Maria in their first career meeting.
