Mirra Andreeva defeated Jessica Pegula 6-3, 6-4 in Saturday's semifinal at Indian Wells, California, to reach the WTA Finals title match.

Andreeva holds a 2-1 career record against Svitolina, whom she will face in Sunday's final. Pegula, appearing in her fifth consecutive Finals, dropped five of the final six games after taking a 3-1 lead in the second set. She lost the 2023 final and was a semifinalist last year.
