Mirra Andreeva turned a 4-1 first-set deficit into a dominant 6-4, 6-0 win over Aryna Sabalenka in 62 minutes Wednesday at Indian Wells, reeling off the final 11 games and winning 45 of the last 55 points to reach her first FAGE WTA Finals semifinal.

As a result, Andreeva became the youngest player to advance to the WTA Finals semifinals since Caroline Wozniacki in 2009. She is the fifth teenager to reach the semifinals since the current round-robin format was introduced in 2003, joining Maria Sharapova, Ana Ivanovic, Wozniacki and Coco Gauff.

And those were not her only milestones. After beating Elina Svitolina 6-4, 6-0 in her opening round-robin match, Andreeva became the first player in tournament history to win a 6-0 set in each of her first two WTA Finals matches.

After a season-long race, the world's top players converge in the California desert with the WTA's biggest title still to be won.
