In the final match of the group tournament, Mukhova will be replaced by a substitute – Russian Diana Schneider. 22-year-old Schneider for the first time in his career will play at the Final tournament in singles.
Unfortunately, I have to withdraw from today’s match due to gastrointestinal problems. This is not how I wanted to end the season, but I have a lot to be proud of and I am already looking forward to next year, said Mukhova, who lost both of her matches in the group stage and could not reach the semi-finals.
The meeting will begin on November 13 at 23:00 GMT.
