Opponent only gets one game: Swiatek storms back to the tennis throne in the WTA Finals

class=”sc-29f61514-0 dXbCZE”>

Poland’s Iga Swiatek wins the WTA Finals in Cancún and is again number 1 in the world.

Swiatek, who ended the season with a show of strength a month after her victory at the WTA 1000 tournament in Beijing, is at the top of the world rankings for the second time in a row. She displaces Aryna Sabalenka from first place, whom she defeated 6:3 6:2 in the semi-finals the previous day.

The Pole follows the French Caroline Garcia in the winners list of the eight best players of the year. Swiatek takes her 17th title on the tour, the sixth of this season in which she won the French Open, among other things.

Swiatek does not give Pegula (WTA 5) any chance in a final that was originally scheduled for Sunday, but was postponed due to rain. The four-time Grand Slam winner needed less than an hour to win. She takes revenge for the defeat she suffered against Pegula in Montreal in August.

Swiatek, who already made an irresistible impression in the semi-finals, leaves only one match to her American rival. No final in the history of the tournament has been so one-sided. (SDA)
