Mirra Andreeva achieved a brilliant triumph over the representative of Belarus Arina Sobolenko in the group stage of the Final Championship of the Women's Tennis Association, held in the American Indian Wells. The meeting ended with the victory of Andreeva with the score 6:4, 6:0.

In the first round of the tournament, Andreeva also beat the Ukrainian Elina Svitolina, who occupies the sixth place in the ranking, and gave the opponent only one game, and Sobolenko, the second racket of the world, took over the Czech Carolina Mukhova, the seventh in the ranking.
