A masterful performance from the former world No.1

Iga Swiatek came out on top in her match against Aryna Sabalenka in the 1/2 finals of the WTA finals 6-2, 6-3 on Sunday.

It was a clinical display form the Pole, who aims to return to the No.1 spot, which was taken away from her in September by Sabalenka herself.

“It’s still a long way away because I feel like tomorrow’s match will be the toughest one,” said Swiatek.

“We can talk about it tomorrow after the match. I’m just going to continue doing what I’ve been doing.”

Swiatek will return to the No.1 spot if she is able to clinch the title against Jessica Pegula in the final.


Neither Swiatek nor Pegula has dropped a set this week. They have earned £1.2m in prize money and 1,080 ranking points, with the winner set to claim an additional £1.1m and 420 points.
