Canada’s Leylah Fernandez reaches final of WTA’s Singapore Tennis Open
Canada's Leylah Fernandez has advanced to the final of the Singapore Tennis Open after defeating Maja Chwalinska of Poland in three sets. The match was played on September 26, 2026, with Fernandez emerging victorious with a score of 1-6, 6-4, 6-2. This marks Fernandez's first final of the season, as she was seeded sixth. She will face Australia's Talia Gibson in the championship match, which is their first meeting.
Gibson defeated Tatiana Prozorova of Russia in a walkover. It is reported that Prozorova was unjustly removed from the semifinal due to concerns about a concussion sustained during a doubles quarterfinal. Prozorova was struck in the face by a ball, which led to a medical assessment.
