2024 BMW Munich Open SATURDAY SCHEDULE and PREVIEW with semifinals featuring Holger RUNE and Taylor FRITZ

The 2024 BMW Munich Open approaches it's conclusion this weekend, as contestants battle it out in the semifinals on Saturday. Defending champion Holger Rune will be aiming to reach his second consecutive final, whereas American Taylor Fritz hopes to build momentum during the clay season.

Fritz has been impressive during his run in Munich. The American has dropped just one set at the event, and is hoping to reach his first clay court final of the season. Standing in his way is Christian Garin, who is currently playing some of his best tennis in recent years. The Chilean upset top seed Alexander Zverev in the quarterfinals, and could prove to be a tough opponent for Fritz.

Rune's opponent is yet to be determined

The Danish superstar breezed through his early rounds, and looks like a favorite to reach the final. Rune will face the winner of the clash between Felix Auger-Aliassime and hometown hero Jan-Lennard Struff, who's quarterfinal battle was suspended due to darkness. Regardless of the outcome, Rune is likely to have the advantage as the winner of the last quarterfinal match will only have a few hours to recuperate before again taking to the court.
