There is a massive day of finals ahead of us, with five new champions set to be crowned in Brussels, Ningbo, Osaka, Almaty and Stockholm. As usual, the Tennis Tracker will provide you with all the latest results and updates.

13:19 CET - Elena Rybakina is the Ningbo champion! The Kazakh stormed imperiously from a set down to clinch a 3-6, 6-0, 6-2 victory over Ekaterina Alexandrova for her second title of the year.

Rybakina made a slow start to the contest as her Russian opponent took an early advantage, but once she clicked into gear, her level was simply too good for Alexandrova, winning the 10th WTA crown of her career.

But perhaps almost as importantly, the points won for her title run has seen her close the gap massively to Mirra Andreeva, who currently occupies the final eighth spot in the Race to the WTA Finals. 

With Rybakina in action in Tokyo next week, if she reaches the semi-finals, she will overtake Andreeva and qualify for the event in Riyadh in place of the 18-year-old.

12:05 CET - Next up is the final in Almaty, with Daniil Medvedev taking on Corentin Moutet. The former is targeting his first title since 2023, while the latter is eyeing his maiden ATP crown.

07:40 CET - Good morning and welcome back to the Tennis Tracker, on a superb day of action around Asia and Europe.

One champion has already been crowned this morning, with Leylah Fernandez winning her second title of the year in Osaka after a 6-0, 5-7, 6-3 victory over 19-year-old starlet Tereza Valentova.

It is the Canadian's fifth crown of her career, while it has also been a magnificent week for the Czech teen, who reached her maiden WTA final.

A little later on at 11:00 CET, Elena Rybakina takes on Ekaterina Alexandrova in what should be a great Ningbo final.

Both players are eyeing their second titles of the year, but for Rybakina, the match takes on added significance, as she looks to pick up valuable points that will help her qualify for the WTA Finals.

In Almaty at 12:00 CET, Daniil Medvedev will be looking to clinch his first title since Rome in 2023, when he comes up against the enigmatic Corentin Moutet - who is enjoying a very good year.

For the Frenchman, victory would signify a milestone moment, as he has never won a tournament on the ATP Tour, losing in his previous two finals.

Indoor specialist Ugo Humbert will be gunning for his eighth career title and second of the year in Stockholm at 15:00 CET, but faces second seed Casper Ruud, who is also eyeing his second triumph of 2025.

And finally, former champion and the in-form Felix Auger-Aliassime clashes with Jiri Lehecka at 16:30 CET, in a match which could prove important for the former's chances of qualifying for the ATP Finals.

For Auger-Aliassime, it would be a third title of the year, but for Lehecka, it would be a third of his career!
