Alexandrova has been called up to substitute for Madison Keys after Andreeva, who holds the ninth-ranked player, chose not to sign in because of not being fit to play today, as stated by the WTA.
Current reports have highlighted issues about how players are facing challenges by the tournament organizers.
Welcome to the latest installment at the Women's Tennis Finals. While all contests promise excitement, the main event features Iga Swiatek facing off with Amanda Anisimova.
Their previous encounter at the Wimbledon Championships four months ago proved extremely lopsided, with Swiatek securing a decisive double bagel victory. Nevertheless, the American player made an impressive recovery just weeks later, defeating Swiatek in convincing fashion during the New York tournament.
This crucial encounter represents the third chapter of their competitive rivalry, with the victorious player progressing to the next round in the Saudi Arabian capital.
Before that contest, Elena Rybakina will face Alexandrova instead of Madison Keys. The American player withdrew due to health issues in what represents a dead rubber, allowing the tenth-ranked player to step in. Rybakina aims to continue her unbeaten streak, having already beaten both her Polish rival and the American contender to claim her semi-final spot.
