Simona Halep played a very good match in the semifinals of the WTA 1000 event in Toronto and came back from a set down against Jessica Pegula.

The experienced Romanian is playing very well lately and after a long time, she will break back into the Top 10 of the WTA Rankings. If Simona Halep wins in the final, she can move to the 6th place and if she loses, she will be 9th.

However, her major move in the WTA Rankings will take place thanks to a great come back against Jessica Pegula. The 2-time Grand Slam champion lost the first set and she was facing two break points in the first game of the second set, but eventually, the former world number 1 was the player that left the match happier.

"I changed a little bit the tactics," Halep said. "In the first set, it was a little bit too fast. She was hitting super strong and I didn't feel the rhythm. Then I just calmed down and I tried to just push her back a little bit more."
