Muchová lost the lead and fell to Svitolina. The chance of advancing is fading.

Karolína Muchová lost her second match at the WTA Finals in Indian Wells against Elina Svitolina, diminishing her chances of advancing to the semifinals. After two hours of play, Muchová was defeated 6:3, 2:6, 2:6, following her earlier loss to Aryna Sabalenka. She now sits last in her group and must rely on Sabalenka defeating Mirra Andreyev to keep her hopes alive for the next round.
