World No 1 Iga Swiatek's bid to win a third successive Porsche Tennis Grand Prix title came to an end in an enthralling 6-3 4-6 6-3 semi-final loss to Elena Rybakina. Fourth seed Rybakina ended Swiatek's perfect record by handing the Pole her first defeat in 11 matches at the tournament, making 10 aces and saving 11 of the 13 break points she faced to win in two hours and 49 minutes.
At 4-2 down, Swiatek rallied to serve to love and had a break point to level the set, but Rybakina held on and went on to break again to reach the final where she will meet either Marta Kostyuk or Marketa Vondrousova. 'It was, like always a very tough match and I was fighting for every ball, it was such a close match,' Rybakina said. 'I'm really happy that I managed to win and I showed a good game.
