Barbora Krejčíková qualified for the semifinals of the WTA Finals 2024 by defeating Coco Gauff 5-7, 4-6 in the third match of the ‘Round Robin‘. The Czech, invited for winning Wimbledon this year despite being outside the top eight of the WTA rankings, beat the American in two sets knowing how to attack the decisive moments. A result that eliminates world number two Iga Swiatek, despite her resounding victory hours before against Daria Kasatkina (6-1 and 6-0). She will face China’s Zheng Qinwen for a place in the final while there will be a high-profile duel between the North American and Aryna Sabalenka, world number one, on the other side of the draw.
