INDIAN WELLS - Elena Rybakina said she showed glimpses of her best form during her dominant win over world No. 1 Iga Swiatek in the Indian Wells semi-finals on Friday, adding that she feels she can beat anyone by maintaining that level.

The world No. 10 thrashed holder Swiatek 6-2, 6-2 to set up a final clash with Aryna Sabalenka, with the Kazakh saying that her aggressive style and booming serve made all the difference in the match.
"Today I was pushing a lot. Overall, some players it's more difficult to play against," said Wimbledon champion Rybakina, who won 82 per cent of her first-serve points.
"With Iga, she's a tough opponent, but when I play like this and everything goes in... Today, in some moments, I played at my highest level. There are moments you feel, 'OK, I can beat anyone if I always play like this'.
"It's the goal, but you never feel amazing and perfect every match.
