Andreeva sweeps past Sabalenka with eleven straight games at WTA Finals

Mirra Andreeva overcame a slow start, initially trailing 4-1 in the opening set, before dominating world number two Aryna Sabalenka at the WTA Finals. The French Open champion reeled off 11 games in a row to secure a 6-4 6-0 victory and advance as the group winner. The defeat leaves Sabalenka needing to win her final group match against Elina Svitolina to reach the semi-finals. Meanwhile, Svitolina kept her own title hopes alive by coming from behind to defeat Karolina Muchova 3-6 6-2 6-2 following a medical timeout for a right hip injury.
