1/5
Iga Swiatek cheers: The Pole is in the final of the WTA Finals.

Iga Swiatek (22, WTA 2) follows the American Jessica Pegula (29, WTA 3) to the final of the WTA Finals in Cancun. The 22-year-old Pole gave world number one Aryna Sabalenka (25) no chance in the semi-finals with a score of 6:3, 6:2 and would replace the Belarusian at the top of the world rankings if she won the last.

The game was canceled on Saturday evening local time after only three games due to bad weather conditions. After the follow-up, Swiatek immediately takes her opponent’s serve; it is the only break in the first set.

Swiatek takes revenge for last year

In the second round, the Pole conceded only five points on her own serve and broke to 2:1 and 5:2. The two tennis stars met in the semi-finals of the WTA Finals last year, when Sabalenka won in three sets.

Both Swiatek and Pegula have never won the tournament of the best eight players of the year. In the head to head battle it is 5:2 in favor of Swiatek. (SDA/che)
