Match Preview

Welcome to another day at the Women's Tennis Finals. While all contests promise excitement, the main event showcases Swiatek facing off with Amanda Anisimova.

Their last meeting at Wimbledon four months ago was remarkably one-sided, with Swiatek achieving a decisive double bagel victory. Nevertheless, the American player delivered a remarkable recovery just weeks later, overcoming Swiatek in straight sets during the US Open quarter-finals.

This crucial encounter represents the third chapter of their ongoing battle, with the victorious player advancing to the next round in the Saudi Arabian capital.

Earlier in the day, Rybakina will face Alexandrova instead of Madison Keys. The American player pulled out due to illness in what represents a meaningless match, allowing the tenth-ranked player to step in. Rybakina aims to continue her unbeaten streak, having already beaten both her Polish rival and Anisimova to claim her last-four position.

  • Player substitution: Alexandrova steps in for Keys
