 So the WTA finals are only a week away. We have a big announcement with Mukava Pulling out of the WTA finals, which is huge because she is of course the Grand Slam finalist of the French Open and has been in really Really good form this year. Let's go over look at why she's pulled out But also have a look at what that means for the replacement coming in. This is what she has to say over on Instagram I'm heartbroken to announce that I will miss my first WTA finals in Cancun together with the team and doctors We tried everything to the last moments to resolve my wrist injury Fortunately the time needed for recovery is longer than we would have hoped and therefore I had to make this unpleasant decision I greatly appreciate the support of all the fans I will do my best to be back in 2024 and get another chance to be part of the WTA finals So jumping over to the rankings now and having a look at what that means So with Mukava out of the WTA finals that means Zachary gets promoted into the WTA finals And it's funny because she wasn't actually in China for the WTA elite trophy Which she would have been the number one seed You wonder if she might have known ahead of time that Mukava might pull out and went there as an alternate So Zachary will jump in to the WTA finals in Mukava's place There it is Mukava not playing the WTA finals Zachary coming in as her replacement And such a shame because Mukava's played some of the best matches of the year against some of those top players Of course those Sabalenka epics that she's played She's also pushed for Yontek in that French Open final really ashamed that she's not going to be there But Zachary who just won in Guadalajara she is going to be in the WTA finals She's actually been pretty good this year overall So it's gonna be really fun to see Zachary get another chance to be in the WTA finals But let me know down in the comments below Who's gonna win the WTA finals if Mukava might have been your dark horse who is gonna be a new pick for the WTA finals I still think Rebecca is gonna thrive in this environment But who knows maybe Sabalenka, maybe Goff, maybe Yontek one of the favorites Maybe Zachary could do some damage remember last year she made it semi-finals But no Mukava in this one Zachary coming in as a replacement last moment
