Madison Keys Withdraws; Mirra Andreeva Declines, Ekaterina Alexandrova Steps In

Ill after a 0-2 start, Keys withdrew from her Riyadh group finale versus Elena Rybakina, saying she was “really disappointed… but proud” of her year. First alternate Andreeva also felt unwell and declined, per Sky’s Gigi Salmon, so Alexandrova steps in. Rybakina is 2-0 and through; Alexandrova debuts, leading their head-to-head 3–2, though Rybakina won in Ningbo last month.
