***
In the second round of the Polka Championship She defeated Czech Karolina Pliskova 7-6 (8-6), 6-2. This was the first world leader performance in Montreal in her career. At the opening, she had a free destiny.
At the 1/8 finals stage, Raszyn, ranked 14th, faces Karolina Mochová. The 22-year-old last met on June 10 in the final of the French Open Grand Slam and won in three sets after a very tight match.
The first group started with an even fight. The Polish woman had the opportunity to break her opponent in the second match, but in the end Muchova was able to defend her request. Świjk had another chance in the fourth game, and this time she took it.
The leader of the WTA rating was more and more “starting” from minute to minute and did not allow the Czech woman to draw in a single match. In the end, the first group ended with the victory of Poland 6: 1.
The second group, like the first group, was evenly matched at first. In the fourth game, Machova broke the Polish, and then won the serve herself and unexpectedly went ahead 4: 1. However, the leader of the WTA rating survived the crisis and won the next two matches, crushing the young Czech.
In the decisive phase of the second set, we saw as many as four breaks – in the end, a poor mutual serve brought Muchova to victory 6: 4. Shortly after the end of the second set, the match was abandoned due to rain.
The ladies returned to court three hours later. Iga Świątek started the third set by breaking the opponent, and then … it started to rain again and the tennis players left the court at 15:30 in the second half.
Match winner Leila Fernandez is waiting for the best in the Polish-Czech rivalry – Daniel Collins. The meeting between the Canadian and the American is scheduled to take place on Friday at 1:00 am Polish time.
