2017 Wta Finals has come to its final lap in Singapore. Defying time and common logic, Venus Williams surged into the final and she will face Caroline Wozniacki, a player who has also reached her eighth final this year. With a ten years gap between them, it's a battle of two exponential players of two different eras.

Moreover, they have so little in common when it comes to their style of play. Aged 37, Venus Williams seeks her first title this year, a triumph that can erase the disappointment of losing two Grand Slam finals, at least partially.

These two have navigated through a tough draw in Singapore. Wozniacki may have had an easier task against Karolina Pliskova but for Venus, things were trickier as she had to recover from one set deficit to end Caroline Garcia's enthusiast bid.

Wozniacki redefines consistency, Williams seeks closure

Aged 27, the Dane tennis star has had a long and fruitful season. Reaching the final in Singapore puts her for the eighth time in a front of a match with a trophy waiting at the finish line. Despite winning a single WTA event in 2017, Wozniacki left her mark all over the place with other six finals throughout the competitive season.

Wozniacki had one place where she lacked success and those were the Grand Slams where she made it into a single quarterfinal at the French Open.

Entering the event in Singapore she was 56-20 in win/ loss ration. After this week, she will surpass the 80 matches milestone in a season.

The second finalist of the 2017 WTA Finals is a player who made it into her maiden Grand Slam final more than twenty years ago. Venus went on losing that 1997 US Open final to Martina Hingis, the Swiss female tennis star who announced her retirement from professional tennis a few days ago.

Throughout this season, Williams had only one place where she felt comfortable, at Grand Slams. She finished a runner-up twice in Melbourne and Wimbledon while the US Open saw her bid ended in the semis by the eventual winner Sloane Stephens. Prior to Singapore, she was 35-12 in win/ loss ratio.

Can Wozniacki break the curse against Venus?

At a first glance, Caroline Wozniacki seems like the player worth putting all the money on. She is younger and she truly enjoys playing on a slow surface like one in Singapore. There is a glitch though simply because Venus Williams has won all their previous seven meetings. More than ten years ago, in Memphis, a one-sided rivalry started between Venus and Caroline. Can the Dane finally put her grip on a first win over the American?
