The demands on Iga Swiatek have grown: And so the 6: 3 and 6: 3 against Jessica Pegula in the last quarterfinals at the French Open 2022 is almost a little lackluster. Because the industry leader made several mistakes, which they compensated for with their offensive game. As in some of the 32 matches before that Swiatek has now won in a row. In tomorrow's semifinals, the Pole will now face Daria Kasatkina, who won the all-Russian duel against Veronika Kudermetova 6:4 and 7:6 (5).
Pegula, who is coached by David Witt, Venus Williams' longstanding coach, was able to fend off the favorite's first three match points with her own serve, while Swiatek used the fourth with a direct winning shot with her backhand. Yesterday the dominator of these days celebrated her 21st birthday.
Cori Gauff and the Italian Martina Trevisan contest the second match of the semifinals.
