Semifinal action at the 2021 Antalya Open kicks off on Tuesday as second seed David Goffin dukes it out with rising Australian sensation Alex de Minaur, in what should be a tantalizing encounter.
The Belgian cruised past Italian Stefano Travaglia in his quarterfinal match, and has been in great form to start his 2021 campaign. However, he lost his only meeting with De Minaur in the round robin stage of the 2019 Davis Cup Finals. The Australian will look to capitalize on his sole victory over Goffin, as he made short work of sixth-seeded Nikoloz Basilashvili in his quarterfinal match.
The second semifinal will be a generational clash between rising Ukrainian Alexander Bublik and French journeyman Jeremy Chardy. The 23-year old Bublik upset top seed Matteo Berrettini in straight sets to book his semifinal spot, but has never faced Chardy on the ATP Tour. The Frenchman rallied from a set down in his quarterfinal match against fifth seed Jan-Lennard Struff, prevailing 4-6 6-2 7-6(8) in a tight encounter.
