Although all contests offer thrilling action, the main event features Swiatek facing off with Anisimova. Their previous encounter at the Wimbledon Championships earlier this season was remarkably one-sided, with Swiatek securing a commanding 6-0, 6-0 win. Nevertheless, the American player made an impressive comeback just weeks later, defeating her opponent in convincing fashion during the New York tournament. This crucial encounter marks the final installment of their ongoing battle, with the winner advancing to the semi-finals in the Saudi Arabian capital. Before that contest, Rybakina will compete against Ekaterina Alexandrova instead of the originally scheduled opponent. The American player withdrew due to illness in what constitutes a dead rubber, allowing the tenth-ranked player to participate. The Kazakh star aims to continue her perfect streak, having already beaten both Swiatek and Anisimova to secure her semi-final spot.
