Iga Swiatek's loss to Coco Gauff in the WTA finals in tennis means that Aryna Sabalenka will end 2024 as world number one.

At the same time, Sabalenka gets revenge from last year when the Belarusian was world number one all the way to the WTA finals, but was knocked off the throne when the Pole Swiatek won the finals.

With the victory over Swiatek, American Gauff is clear for the semifinals in the finals in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It is also Sabalenka who has won two matches in the group stage so far. Swiatek still has a chance, if she beats Jessica Pegula, USA.
