"Hello, hello, hello and welcome to another day at the WTA Finals. With all due respect to our opening clash, the real contest is between Iga Swiatek and Amanda Anisimova. Their meeting in the Wimbledon final four months ago was historically one-sided, Swiatek triumphing 6-0, 6-0, yet it took just a few weeks for Anisimova to make an astonishing recovery."
"The American pulled off a straight-sets win against Swiatek in the US Open quarters and now we go to the end of the trilogy. Today's winner will advance to the semi-finals in Riyadh. Before that we've got Elena Rybakina against Madison Keys Ekaterina Alexandrova. Keys has dropped out with illness in what is a dead rubber, so in comes the world No 10. Rybakina will look to continue her 100% record, having defeated Swiatek and Anisimova to book her last-four spot."
Matchday at the WTA Finals centers on Iga Swiatek versus Amanda Anisimova following their contrasting recent results. Swiatek defeated Anisimova 6-0, 6-0 at Wimbledon, and Anisimova later beat Swiatek in straight sets at the US Open quarters. The winner of their meeting will advance to the semi-finals in Riyadh. Elena Rybakina was scheduled to play Madison Keys with Ekaterina Alexandrova also mentioned. Keys withdrew through illness and Alexandrova stepped in. Rybakina carries a 100% record after beating Swiatek and Anisimova to secure a last-four place.
