- The Russian secured her group win in just 62 minutes.
Mirra Andreeva secured first place in her WTA Finals round-robin group with a decisive 6-4, 6-0 win against Aryna Sabalenka. The No. 3 seed mounted an impressive comeback, winning 20 of the next 23 points after trailing 1-4 in the opening set. This surge of momentum propelled her to victory in just 62 minutes.
Andreeva expressed high energy and readiness for more matches, crediting her coach for a pre-match pep talk. This dominant performance follows previous wins where she lost minimal games. Her undefeated group stage record sets up a crucial match between Sabalenka and Elina Svitolina for the sole remaining semifinal berth.
Sabalenka, who recently lost the No. 1 ranking, will face Svitolina, a former WTA Finals champion. Svitolina, the only mother in the field, previously lost to Andreeva but rebounded with a comeback victory over Karolina Muchova.
