July 9 (UPI) -- Belinda Bencic advanced to the semifinals in just her second Grand Slam since since returning from maternity leave, upsetting Mirra Andreeva through a pair of tiebreaks Wednesday at Wimbledon.
Bencic, ranked No. 35, played clean tennis, totaling just 24 unforced errors, compared to the Russian's 37, in the 7-6(3), 7-6(2) triumph.
The Swiss tennis sensation, who was a 2019 U.S. Open semifinalist, gave birth to daughter Bella in 2024 and returned to the Grand Slam stage at the 2025 Australian Open, where she reached the fourth round.
She missed the French Open due to an arm injury before taking aim at London's grass-court major.
