Iga Świątek has not seen one in the WTA ranking for a long time. The Polish woman lost the chair of the leader of the female list for Aryna Sabalenka. The Belarusian used problems with the anti -doping tests of our star and soon overtook Iga. She has not given place to this day and a few weeks ago it seemed that he would not give up for a long time.
However, everything changed with the end of the season on the grass courts. There, Iga sensationally reached the final of the Tournament in Bad Homburg, and then Wimbledon won even more unexpectedly. Both of these results provided our star with very serious ranking profit. It became clear that Aryna Sabalenka’s position is not so sure.
Iga Świątek will remain two. Wiktorowski’s favor
The Belarusian one came to the second part of the season under the pressure of defense of several thousand points, in Iga this number did not exceed even a thousand. The Polish woman took the first step, winning in Cincinnati. After that triumph, it became clear that Iga could return to the chair of the leader, but Sabalence would have to happen to some cataclysm. Before the quarter -finals, we knew that this change would not happen.
Our star, however, had to look at the back, where Coco Gauff was waiting for the mistake. However, this happened to the American. She was the tournament champion, in the fourth round of this year’s competition she faced Naomi Osaka. Even before the first whistle, we knew that if he lost, the situation would be clear, the second place after the US Open would remain occupied by Świątek.
Before the American match with the Japanese, everyone was waiting for an amazing spectacle, but only from Osaka. Tomasz Wiktorowski’s mentee demolished her rival, winning 6: 3, 6: 2 in a really excellent style. This means that the Polish-Japanese duo provided Świątek with the number two female tennis after the US Open, the question is, How far will Sabalenka be?
