Iga Swiatek

CANCUN, Mexico – Second-ranked Iga Swiatek defeated world number one Aryna Sabalenka, 6-3, 6-2, on Sunday to reach the title match of the WTA Finals, where she will face fellow unbeaten Jessica Pegula.

By downing the reigning Australian Open champion, Swiatek denied Sabalenka a victory that would have clinched the year-end top ranking for the 25-year-old from Belarus. Instead, Swiatek can claim the year-end top spot if she beats Pegula.
