Elina Svitolina will face world number one Ashleigh Barty in the WTA Finals showpiece in Shenzhen.

Ukrainian Svitolina, 25, had fought back to lead 5-7 6-3 4-1 when a tearful Belinda Bencic, 22, retired from their semi-final with cramp.

Karolina Pliskova, 27, forced the only break of the first set in the other semi-final, but Australian Barty, 23, controlled the second set.

Barty then claimed the decider, winning 4-6 6-2 6-3 to reach Sunday's final.

it's been such an underwhelming tournament with so many retirements + bad games
watching Barty play, she's not that good, she can run but she doesn't have any signature shot
the game yesterday with Pliskova felt like watching the world #101 vs the #102 instead of #1 vs #2
it's always the games of makes less errors

Alexander Zverev has denied using his phone during his match against Stefanos Tsitsipas at the ATP Finals.

Zverev was asked about the incident at a news conference after he was seen touching something in his bag at a changeover during Wednesday's defeat.

The 22-year-old German, who lost 6-3 6-2 at London's O2 Arena, said: "I don't know what they saw, but it was definitely not a phone."

I've been watching some of this. A lot of the GB matches were quite close but they managed to come through them. They play Germany in the quarter-final tomorrow.

It's live on Eurosport isn't it? BBC will be annoyed that they aren't showing it.

Kyle Edmund wins his match against Feliciano Lopez. A strange decision by Spain to play Lopez in that match when they had higher ranked players in their team. Maybe the others are a bit tired. Rafael Nadal will surely beat Dan Evans meaning the semi-final will be decided by the doubles match.

The 2nd Spanish, his father died the day before yesterday so he's not there anymore
The 3rd got injured playing yesterday against Argentina
Spain has not much left, relying 100% on Nadal, this Feliciano Lopez is pretty shitty

Oh I see,thanks. GB must have a great chance with their regular doubles pairing of Murray and Skupski. Spain didn't finish until ten past one Madrid time last night.

The GB doubles pair unlucky not to take any of those set points. Nadal was a machine.

Nadal is just too confident right now, in the doubles game the Spanish team was clearly worse but won just by guts and determination

not sure who's gonna win the final, maybe Canada, cos against the 2nd Spanish will sure lose, so it all depends again on Nadal

Rafael Nadal clinched an emotional Davis Cup victory for Spain over Canada when he beat Denis Shapovalov in front of a jubilant home crowd in Madrid.

His 6-3 7-6 (9-7) win sealed the title, with Roberto Bautista Agut returning to the team three days after his father's death to put the hosts 1-0 up.

Bautista Agut was in tears after beating 19-year-old Felix Auger-Aliassime 7-6 (7-3) 6-3 in the opener.

Nadal's win gave Spain an unassailable 2-0 lead and a sixth Davis Cup title.
