Russian tennis player Daria Kasatkina suffered a major defeat against Poland’s Iga Szwiatek in the group stage match of the WTA final tournament, which takes place in Riyadh.
The meeting of the Orange group lasted 51 minutes and ended with a score of 6:1, 6:0 in favor of the second racket in the world.
Kasatkina entered the WTA Finals after American Jessica Pegula withdrew due to injury.
Shventek’s victory over Kasatkina has no significance for the tournament. The Pole will only qualify for the semi-finals of the tournament if the Czech Barbora Krejcikova loses to the American Cori Gauff.
