Stefanos Tsitsipas will play an Italian opponent for a second consecutive day, squaring off with former top-10 player Matteo Berrettini in the semifinals of the Swiss Open. Roughly 24 hours after dispatching Fabio Fognini 6-4 6-3, Tsitsipas is scheduled to face another formidable Italian in Berrettini, the former world's No.6 player in the ATP Rankings. The Greek will have to come up with the same level of play he showcased against Fognini for him to get past his next foe. In his quarterfinal match, Tsitsipas controlled the match by winning 74 percent of his first serves and breaking Fognini four times. He also recorded five aces and 22 return points. Berrettini also hurdled his last opponents in straight sets, though he did it the hard way. Against No.3 seed Felix Auger Aliassime of Canada 7-6(7) 7-6(2), the Italian fired five aces and won 43 of the total 83 points off his first serves. Berrettini last lifted an ATP title above his head in April when he won the Grand Prix Hassan II, an ATP 250 clay-court tournament in Morocco.
