Elina Svitolina and Elena Rybakina: Elena Rybakina leads 3–2 across 5 recorded meetings.

The serve numbers stayed lopsided — Rybakina won 70% of first-serve points to Svitolina's 62% and out-aced her 7 to 1 — but couldn't survive the gap in conversion. Svitolina also saved 16 of 20 break points (80%) to stay in front once the swing came. The result snaps Rybakina's edge in the rivalry to 3-2.
