Incredible but true. The four players who have reached the semifinals of the Australian Open 2026 have done so without dropping a single set throughout the tournament. Aryna Sabalenka, Elina Svitolina, Elena Rybakina, and Jessica Pegula enter the penultimate round having demonstrated great superiority over the rest of their opponents, a feat that has only been seen on five occasions in the Open Era, although three of them had certain conditions.
In the 1970 Australian Open, there was a small draw, and they only had to play three matches to reach the semifinals, while in the 1976 and 1980 US Opens, some of them received a bye in the first round. Only in Roland Garros 1995 did all four semifinalists win five matches without dropping a set. They were Arantxa Sánchez-Vicario, Kimiko Date, Conchita Martínez, and Steffi Graf, with the German winning the title that year.
