Zheng reached the Paris Olympics’ career’s biggest triumph when she won the single title after making it almost impossible and knocked out Swiatek which in the same gravel arena in French Open did not lose a match in several years.
– It was actually nothing I thought about so much, because I knew this is on Hardcourt and I knew what I was doing wrong in the Olympics, Swiatek tells the WTA Tour.
Those tears have long been dried and the Polish world two won in safe sets, both led by 5-1 and had full control.
– At the end it blew pretty much, which made it super tricky. You have to adapt quickly and it is not so easy. But I’m glad I pressed to the end. I wanted to keep calm and really remained focused, and I’m glad I did it, Swhethk says according to tennis.com.
First to reach four straight semi -finals in Indian Wells
The match ball was a little snowy when Switek cheered after a double error from Zheng. Switek also won the last game blank.
In addition, Swiatek wrote a small piece of history in Indian Wells organized since 1989. She became the first women’s player to reach the semi -finals four years on the rake.
Swiatek now has 7-1 in mutual meetings with Zheng.
No matter how goes in Indian Wells, Aryna Sabalenka will remain as a world. Swiatek remains as unharmed second.
