Match schedule for Saturday, August 22, ATP Cincinnati semifinals 2026: Cobolli-Fils and Pegula-Swiatek, an afternoon of tennis

A spectacular day for all tennis lovers is ahead of us tomorrow at the ATP Cincinnati 2026 (and also, of course, at the WTA Cincinnati 2026). The Saturday, August 22nd schedule presents a menu of semifinals that promises to be delightful and will also suit the timing for a large part of the Spanish audience, with star matches starting in the early afternoon.

Perhaps the match in the order of play that generates the most anticipation is the one that will define a new finalist of the Masters 1000. Flavio Cobolli and Arthur Fils will open the singles day in the Center Court, and they will do so no earlier than 7:30 PM (Spanish time), a magnificent opportunity to enjoy the playing style and court coverage of two of the most promising players on the ATP circuit. What follows is equally exciting: Jessica Pegula and Iga Swiatek revive an authentic WTA classic in the first women's semifinal, which thus concludes the daytime session.

Sara Bejlek, the only confirmed player for a great night session

Whatever happens, the night session will be led by the Americans. The Cincinnati audience will find a good spot from 1:00 AM: Taylor Fritz or Brandon Nakashima, depending on who wins tonight, will face off against Musetti or Tiafoe, with the possibility of a 100% American match.

The day will conclude with the tournament's major revelation, Sara Bejlek, who, after defeating Madison Keys today, has secured her best result in a WTA 1000 in her short but promising career. Her opponent in the final match of the day is yet to be determined and will come from the match between Coco Gauff and Marta Kostyuk: it will be the cherry on top of a delightful Saturday in terms of tennis on both circuits. Not to be missed!
