Jabeur to take on Muguruza in the Chicago Fall Tennis Classic final

Saturday, 02 October 2021 at 21:20

Not much tennis has been played today in Chicago but we have the names of the finalists who will contest the final tomorrow and it will be Ons Jabeur against Garbine Muguruza.

A couple of hours before play was set to start it was announced that Marketa Vondrousova has withdrawn from her match against Garbine Muguruza sending the Spaniard into the final with a walkover. It's the 2nd walkover Muguruza received in the main draw of the Chicago Fall Tennis Classic as Azarenka withdrew in R3 as well.

She will play Ons Jabeur in the final who did play a little bit of tennis today but the Tunisian did get the chance to finish the match as her opponent Elena Rybakina retired in the 2nd set. The first set was won by Jabeur who played a very good tennis match as she did yesterday against Svitolina. Both Jabeur and Muguruza are pushing for a spot in the WTA finals in November and both could use the points.

Jabeur has only won one title so far in her career and she would likely want to add another one. She has been the best performer this week and she will fancy her chances against Muguurza who did not play any strong tennis players this week.
