Cincinnati withdrawal advances EGA to semifinals

Polish tennis player Iga Swiatek, the defending champion of the Cincinnati tournament, has reached the semifinals after her opponent, Elena Rybakina, withdrew due to a foot heel injury. This occurred less than half an hour after the match had started. Rybakina was trailing 1-4 in the first set when she stopped playing. Reports suggest that the injury raised concerns about her readiness for the upcoming US Open, which begins in 10 days. Had she continued, Rybakina would likely have reached the Cincinnati final and possibly risen to the top spot in the world rankings for the first time in her career, having recently defeated the current world No. 1, Aryna Sabalenka. Swiatek will face American Jessica Pegula in the semifinals, a player who has won her fourth consecutive match.
