Olivia Gadecki continued her impressive run in Mexico by advancing to the Guadalajara Open semifinals after beating Martina Trevisan 6-2, 3-6, 6-1.
The 22-year-old Australian qualifier, who is ranked 152nd, converted eight of 10 break-point chances to beat Trevisan, a Roland Garros semifinalist in 2022, and reach a WTA semifinal for the first time.
Gadecki arrived in Mexico with just two wins over top-100 players but has recorded three this week, including a second-round win over world No. 11 Danielle Collins.
"There's a lot of things I'm proud of this week," Gadecki said.
In the semifinals, Gadecki will play Camila Osorio, who defeated Kamilla Rakhimova 7-6 (6), 6-1.
In the other semifinal, fourth-seeded Caroline Garcia will face fifth-seeded Magdalena Frech, who advanced with a 6-4, 6-3 victory over Marina Stakusic.
Garcia advanced earlier in a walkover after Marie Bouzkova withdrew due to an illness.
The tournament is being played on hard courts at the Complejo Panamericano de Tenis in Guadalajara.
