WTA Finals: Sabalenka Dispatches Rybakina In Rain-halted Match To Reach Semis
WTA Finals: Aryna Sabalenka advanced to the semifinals of the WTA Finals with a 6-2, 3-6, 6-3 win against Elena Rybakina, joining Jessica Pegula as the first two semifinalists this year.
Sabalenka is now one step closer to finishing as the year-end No.1. If she wins her Saturday semifinal match, she’ll lock it down. If she loses and Iga Swiatek goes on to win the title here, the Pole will regain the top ranking she carried for 75 weeks but lost after the US Open, WTA reports.
The match began Thursday night but was plagued by several rain delays; play was suspended just past 11:30 p.m. with Sabalenka leading 6-2, 3-5. The two returned to the Estadio Paradisus court some 16 hours later on Friday.
