Oct 30 : World number one Elena Rybakina withdrew from the Pan Pacific Open quarter-finals on Friday due to a neck injury, sending Canada's Leylah Fernandez through to the last four via walkover.

• Rybakina secured the year-end number one ranking after beating compatriot Yulia Putintseva in the second round.

• Fernandez will face Russia's Kamilla Rakhimova for a place in the final.
