She was already eliminated from the 2024 WTA Finals, but as you know well, a treat is always welcome. Every time Elena Rybakina shares the court with Aryna Sabalenka, sparks fly, and the two matches behind them allowed the Kazakh to show her best version in her last appearance in Riyadh. In a match with nothing at stake in terms of qualification, Elena secured points and money after defeating the Belarusian in a very good duel (6-4, 3-6, 6-1), where perhaps Aryna let go in a third set dominated by Rybakina's powerful and flat hammers. With this victory, Elena remains in the top-5 regardless of what Qinwen Zheng does, who would surpass her with a victory in the semifinals.
