Amanda Anisimova OUT! Alex Eala's Path to the Singapore Final Just Blew Wide Open!

Amanda Anisimova OUT! Alex Eala's Path to the Singapore Final Just Blew Wide Open! World No. 11 and second seed Amanda Anisimova has officially withdrawn from the Singapore Tennis Open due to a left wrist injury, marking the eleventh withdrawal from the tournament. For Alex Eala, this changes everything. Anisimova was the only player in Eala's entire half of the draw who had defeated her this season, having come from a set down to beat her at the Cincinnati Open. With Anisimova out and lucky loser Viktoria Morvayova inheriting her seeded bye, Eala is now the highest seed remaining in the entire bottom half of the bracket. Meanwhile, top-10 superstar Mirra Andreeva and defending champion Elise Mertens sit safely on the opposite side. On paper, this is the cleanest path to a WTA 500 final Eala has ever had. But an open draw doesn't win matches on its own. Entering her first competitive match in 18 days without a warm-up round, the spotlight and pressure now rest entirely on Eala's shoulders.
