Second-seeded Swiatek will meet fifth-seeded Jessica Pegula in season-ending championship on Monday

Iga Swiatek, of Poland, celebrates after defeating Aryna Sabalenka, of Belarus, during a women's singles semifinal match at the WTA Finals tennis championships, in Cancun , Mexico, Sunday, Nov. 5, 2023. Iga Świątek gave herself a shot at her first WTA Finals title and the year-end top ranking by eliminating No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka 6-3, 6-2 in a rain-suspended semifinal Sunday.

The final was supposed to be held Sunday, but a series of showers throughout the week continued Saturday, when Pegula defeated Coco Gauff in the first semifinal. The second semifinal, Swiatek vs. Sabalenka, was stopped in the fourth game. “I definitely want to give credit to Iga. She adjusted really well in these conditions. And on this court, she was definitely way, way better than me,” Sabalenka said. “She just started putting so much pressure on me.”
