Match Preview
Welcome to the latest installment at the WTA Finals. While all contests promise excitement, the main event showcases Swiatek facing off with Amanda Anisimova.
Their previous encounter at Wimbledon earlier this season proved extremely lopsided, with the Polish star achieving a commanding double bagel victory. However, Anisimova made an impressive recovery shortly after, defeating her opponent in convincing fashion during the US Open quarter-finals.
This crucial encounter represents the third chapter of their ongoing battle, with the winner advancing to the next round in the Saudi Arabian capital.
Before that contest, Rybakina will face Alexandrova replacing Madison Keys. Keys withdrew due to illness in what constitutes a meaningless match, paving the way for the world No 10 to participate. The Kazakh star aims to continue her perfect record, having already beaten both Swiatek and the American contender to secure her last-four position.
