Iga Świątek secured a place in the championship match of the Toronto Open, setting up a showdown with Elena Rybakina for the tournament title. The Polish world number one advanced after a straight‑sets victory in the semifinals, while the Kazakhstani player earned her spot by defeating a fellow top‑seed in a tightly contested three‑set encounter.
The semifinals also saw the departures of Elina Svitolina and Coco Gauff, both of whom were eliminated after losing to Świątek and Rybakina respectively. Their exits leave the final as a contest between the current world number one and a rising contender, with the winner poised to claim the prestigious Canadian Open crown and valuable ranking points.
