The Polish woman competed with Karolina Mošová, but the match was interrupted several times due to rain. Danielle Collins will fight for the semi-finals.

Although Iga Świątek started the duel with Karolina Muchova on Thursday in the late afternoon Polish time, she only finished it the next day. The reason is the outages caused by the heavy rains that hit Montreal. Fortunately, despite the “torn” game, the best tennis player in the world turned out to be the best, beating the Czechs in three sets: 6: 1, 4: 6, 6: 4. Thus, the Polish woman ensured her retention at the head of the leader Professional Tennis Players Association.
