Indian Wells Tennis Garden: World No. 1 Iga Swiatek secured her place in the Paribas Open final after a convincing 6-2, 6-1 victory over No. 31 seed Marta Kostyuk of Ukraine in the semifinals. She will next meet World No. 9 Maria Sakkari, who battled out Coco Gauff in three hard-fought sets on Friday to reach the summit clash.

Swiatek's dominance on the court was evident as she swiftly built a set and break lead, capitalising on Kostyuk's erratic start marked by 15 unforced errors in the opening set.

Despite Kostyuk's efforts to regroup, Swiatek maintained her momentum, displaying precision and control throughout the match. The Ukrainian's challenges were compounded by a foot injury that prompted a medical timeout, further tipping the scales in Swiatek's favour. With clinical efficiency, Swiatek sealed the victory after just 69 minutes on the court, showcasing her prowess as the top seed in the tournament.
