A heavyweight duel that will determine the second finalist of the tournament in New York. Ons Jabeur and Caroline Garcia will appear first on the court, and right after the match ends, the leader of the WTA ranking, Iga Świątek, and the Belarusian player, Aryna Sabalenka, will face each other. Both ladies know the taste of victories in high-rank tournaments on hard courts, but Iga should have the mental advantage, because she has already appeared in the semi-finals of slam tournaments. Of course, the Belarusian, who defended the result from a year ago and reappeared in the semi-final confrontation, cannot be underestimated. Then she succumbed to the Canadian Fernandez, and this time I think she has an even more difficult task ahead of her. The Polish woman has already faced a competitor with a similar game scheme, and therefore with a high power of impact on forehand strokes and a very dangerous service. It cannot be said that she had no problems defeating the German woman, because this is what we are talking about, but I think that Aryna will not play that accurately, and each run to the ball in the defensive sphere of the Polish woman will not resemble any of the fights of the Belarusian representative so far. .

It is worth noting who Aryna faced. Neither with Harrison, Kanepi or Pliskova, she could count on scooping her balls so often, because they are more sedate players. Burel was completely out of the game as it was not the ball speed level she could return. The closest in Iga's game format was Danielle Collins, who caused Aryna a lot of problems, but Danielle herself said that she cannot fully compete with this opponent. In my opinion, Iga is much more learned to play with Sabalenka, with whom she has already won three times this season. The only defeat was in her debut in the Finals, when Iga was completely wrong and emotionally was a shadow of herself. Today, more reasons to worry on the court should have Aryna, who can break down under a difficult situation and I hope that her problems with double errors and feeling for the court will appear with a good Polish game. I also hope that Iga will start to feel the court on her forehand faster, which would make her competition with Białruska much easier. type: Swiatek win
