Singapore(October 26, 2017): Caroline Garcia extended her stay in Singapore after battling past Elina Svitolina in three sets to stay alive in the Red Group at the BNP Paribas WTA Finals Singapore.
In a rematch of their China Open epic from a few weeks ago – which saw Garcia save match point to beat Svitolina en route to the biggest title of her career the Frenchwoman pulled off the stunner once again, winning 6-7(7), 6-3, 7-5 after a two hour and 45 minute battle.
In another match, Caroline Wozniacki thrashed world number one Simona Halep to reach the WTA Finals last four in Singapore.
Wozniacki, who beat Elina Svitolina in her first match, broke Halep’s serve five times in a victory that secured progress from Red Group.
Caroline Garcia won the last four games to beat Svitolina 6-7 (9-7) 6-3 7-5 in Wednesday’s other Red Group match.
The result means any one of Halep, Garcia or Svitolina could join Wozniacki in the semi-finals depending on the results of Friday’s last robin-round matches.
Svitolina will face Halep and Garcia will take on Wozniacki to determine who will advance from the Red Group.
