Elena Rybakina delivers the final surprise at the WTA Finals 2025 with a victory that regains her strength in the rivalry. With a score of 6-3 and 7-6(0) in 1 hour and 48 minutes, the Kazakh player defeated Aryna Sabalenka to become the new champion of the WTA Finals 2025.
Although Elena Rybakina had the chance to lower the volume of her opponent's shouts, Sabalenka reacted to roar louder than ever. The scoreboard remained tight despite the Kazakh's efforts, as she advanced steadily and confidently in her serves.
Aryna's errors condemned the world number one, who became increasingly frustrated with her lack of accuracy. On the other side, Rybakina navigated through difficulties to maintain tremendous confidence in her game. Even with defeatist airs, the world number one could not avoid her opponent's strong dominance.

Rybakina confirms the final blow
Despite attempting a complete mental reset after a break in the locker room, Sabalenka's negative feelings resurfaced, causing her to yield once again under pressure. Even winning points did not relax Aryna, a victim of seemingly endless pressure. Despite the Belarusian's grimaces, the tie remained until the end of the second set.
The clash was resolved in a decisive tiebreak, one that Rybakina dominated without dropping a single point, solidifying herself as that formidable rival, that third figure that was missing in the women's circuit to turn everything upside down.
