Ukrainian tennis player Elina Svitolina defeated world number two Aryna Sabalenka in a thrilling three-set match, advancing to the WTA Finals semifinals where she will face Wimbledon champion Linda Noskova. Despite starting the third set broken, Svitolina quickly came back, winning six consecutive games to secure a 6-3, 3-6, 6-1 victory.
This marked just her second win in eight encounters against Sabalenka. Earlier on Friday, French Open champion Mirra Andreeva advanced to the semifinals with a 6-2, 6-1 win over Diana Shnaider, who replaced an injured Karolina Muchova. Sabalenka had a disappointing year, failing to secure any Grand Slam titles, losing in the finals of the Australian and US Opens, and relinquishing her world number one ranking to Elena Rybakina.
