Elena Rybakina showed that she is still as strong as ever. The Kazakh player, ranked ninth in the world, defeated Jasmine Paolini with a score of 6-3, 6-2 in 1 hour and 30 minutes in a match where she did almost as she pleased. With an impressive array of winners, Elena will compete for the title at the WTA Ningbo 2025.

Elena's consistency in her serve set the tone at the beginning of the match. Her serving, both first and second, allowed the Kazakh player to control the game from anywhere on the court, taking advantage of every ball with less intensity from her opponent to dictate play.

The break was only a matter of time, despite Jasmine giving her all in her returns, stepping forward and playing aggressively, hitting great passing shots or finding occasional errors from the other side of the net, which was not so common.

With a total of 21 winners, Rybakina shut the door on a Paolini who couldn't unleash her best tennis on the court. Elena effortlessly opened angles and delivered unreturnable shots to every corner, gradually diminishing Jasmine's hopes.

After saving three break points against her, the Italian couldn't contain a Rybakina who seemed to soar on the Japanese tournament court. Having an answer for everything, the ninth-ranked player in the world continued to pile on the pressure. Caught between a rock and a hard place, the Italian tried to raise the intensity, but despite the tension and nerves of the moment, she couldn't capitalize on any break point to extend the match.

Ultimately, Elena Rybakina, the third seed in the tournament, displayed an incredible level to overcome that final challenging situation and confirm her presence in the grand final of the WTA Ningbo 2025, where she will face the winner between Diana Shnaider and Ekaterina Alexandrova.
