Game Preview
Greetings to another day at the WTA Finals. Although both matches offer thrilling action, the primary attraction features Swiatek facing off with Amanda Anisimova.
Their last meeting at Wimbledon earlier this season proved extremely lopsided, with the Polish star securing a decisive double bagel win. However, Anisimova delivered a remarkable comeback shortly after, defeating Swiatek in straight sets during the New York tournament.
Today's match marks the third chapter of their ongoing battle, with the winner progressing to the semi-finals in Riyadh.
Earlier in the day, Elena Rybakina will face Alexandrova instead of the originally scheduled opponent. Keys pulled out due to health issues in what represents a dead rubber, allowing the world No 10 to participate. The Kazakh star aims to continue her perfect streak, having previously defeated both her Polish rival and the American contender to claim her semi-final position.
