One win from the final. Alex Eala vs Rebeka Masarova at the Birmingham Open 2026 is a semi-final that could define the Filipina's entire grass season — and we have the full Eala vs Masarova prediction, preview, and tactical breakdown right here.

Eala is the world number 37, top seed, and has not dropped a set all tournament. She beat Hon, Charaeva and Sawangkaew to reach her first WTA semi-final since Auckland in January — and the Wimbledon 2026 preparation she needs is right there for the taking. Masarova has been equally impressive, beating Naef, Maria and Stoiana in three consecutive three-set battles, proving she has the fight and the grass court game to go deep. The Eala vs Masarova Birmingham Open 2026 semi-final is a first ever meeting between two players both peaking at exactly the right moment. One of them reaches a grass court final with Wimbledon 2026 just weeks away.
