The great fear faced in the memorable match against Naomi Osaka is now a distant memory on the horizon for Iga Swiatek. the Pole also got rid of Marketa Vondrousova, qualifying for the Roland Garros semi-finals. And on a court that has become a clay of conquest for the Polish player. Even today, the court told a clear story. After having given a very hard 6-0, 6-0 to Anastasia Potapova, Swiatek also literally destroyed the Wimbledon champion. The result speaks for itself: 6-0 6-2. A warning for all her opponents, starting with Coco Gauff, who will meet her in the semi-final.
At the on-court interview, the WTA No.1 spoke of the feeling of total control she feels on the court when she plays, as if nothing could go wrong.
