Pegula Withdraws from WTA Finals: Who Will Replace Her?
World No. 6 Jessica Pegula has withdrawn from the WTA Finals.
Details: The American tennis player was forced to make this decision due to a left knee injury.
Her spot in the Orange Group will be taken by the first alternate, World No. 9 Daria Kasatkina from Russia.
Competing under “neutral status,” Kasatkina is set to face Iga Świątek in a decisive match on November 7.
Additionally, Novak Djokovic announced that due to an injury, he will not be able to play throughout the next week, meaning he will have to withdraw from the year-end tournament.
