The young Russian confirms her role as a rising star by winning the Dubai WTA 1000 championship while still underage.
Clara Tauson
The WTA Dubai 2025 is proving to be the right place for some "firsts." The final of this WTA 1000 will feature Mirra Andreeva, who at 17 is looking to debut in style... and Clara Tauson, once of similar stature to the Russian, who is experiencing a spectacular tennis renaissance confirmed on Emirati soil. After overcoming names like Sabalenka or Noskova, the Danish power-hitter breezed past Karolina Muchova (6-4, 6-7(4), 6-3) to set up a final between two young gems of the women's circuit, a title showdown that will crown one of them as the new champion of a WTA 1000. Can Tauson put the finishing touch on the best week of her career?

The semifinals of the Dubai 2025 WTA 1000 are set with a top half of the draw that is completely different from the bottom half. While Elena Rybakina and Mirra Andreeva will battle to secure a spot in the final, two names that could be contenders but not at the forefront, on the other side we will see Clara Tauson and Karolina Muchova working towards the same goal. We're talking about three seeded players – with only one in the top 10 – and an occasional invitee such as the Danish player. Predictions? It's better to wait until tomorrow and reveal our cards then.

This coming Saturday, February 22nd, we will witness the grand final of the WTA Dubai 2025 featuring two somewhat unexpected players. On one side, Mirra Andreeva will aim to make history by claiming her first WTA 1000 title at just 17 years old. And on the other, world No. 38 Clara Tauson will seek to solidify her resurgence. Both have overcome top players, with the young Russian defeating Swiatek and the Danish player beating Sabalenka. Who will emerge victorious in this unique showdown? That is yet to be seen, but what we do know is that this exciting face-off will take place on Saturday, February 22nd at 19:00 local time, meaning 16:00 in Spain. The match can be watched through WTA TV and TennisChannel.

The Dane landed very early in the elite, but it wasn't until 2025 that she finally found consistency. Today she will seek her first WTA 1000 final.
Since losing the final of the 2025 Australian Open, Aryna Sabalenka has won one match in the following two tournaments. What is the reason for this lack of performance from the world No. 1? Listening to her statements this Wednesday, just after falling to Clara Tauson in the round of 16 at the WTA 1000 in Dubai, we can draw an evident conclusion: the Belarusian does not feel the same interest in all tournaments.
"Today Clara played a great match, I think she came here better prepared than me. She had more hunger than me this time, that's all, so very well done on her part and not so much on mine. In our last match, the one we played last month in Australia, I was a different player," evaluated the one from Minsk before heading to the United States.

New week, new surprise on the circuit, once again disappointing for Aryna Sabalenka who says goodbye at the WTA Dubai 2025. The world number one lost in two sets with a score of 6-3 and 6-2 in 1 hour and 24 minutes. The protagonist of this match was Clara Tauson, ranked 38 in the world, who prevented the Belarusian from having any chance, completing a match that she will surely take a while to forget. Sabalenka now needs a few days to reflect on what happened on the tour and to see what solution to implement.

The day ended at the WTA Linz 2025, and with it, great matches after which we already know the names of the semifinalists. The wildcard and title favorite, Karolina Muchova, will be present after defeating Anastasia Potapova in a tough match (6-3 3-6 6-3). Thus, the Czech will face Ekaterina Alexandrova, who left Petra Martic behind with 3-6 6-2 6-2. On the other side of the draw, Clara Tauson defeated Anna Blinkova (6-4 6-3) to face Dayana Yastremska in the other semifinal. The Ukrainian played a great match to defeat Maria Sakkari with a score of 7-5 6-0.

Aryna Sabalenka struggled a lot to overcome Clara Tauson (7-6 6-4). The Belarusian was shaky with her serve in the first set, where there were up to eight breaks between them. In the second set, Sabalenka quickly took the lead, but Tauson began to loosen up and came close to forcing the match into a second tiebreak that could have leveled things. Aryna showed the grit of a world number one and ultimately won the match in two sets. Her next opponent will be Magdalena Frech or Mirra Andreeva.

The first week of the season on the women's circuit was very intense, with the participation of the world's best players and a clear conclusion: Aryna Sabalenka is the best player at the moment. With her title in Brisbane, the Belarusian increases her lead over Iga Swiatek in the WTA ranking, now sitting with a 1,556-point advantage over the Polish player. In addition, Cori Gauff closes in on Iga and consolidates her position in the top-3.
The other big winners of the week, who will come out with the best ranking of their careers, are Mirra Andreeva (15), Yulia Putintseva (26), Jessica Bouzas (52), and Polina Kudermetova (56). A special mention goes to Clara Tauson, the champion in Auckland, who moves up nine positions and now ranks 41st in the world.
