Iga Świątek advanced to the second round of Wimbledon 2022 as the Polish WTA rankings leader beat Croatian Jana Fett 6:0, 6:3 on Tuesday. She picked up her 36th match-win in a row.
“In her first match since she won the Roland Garros final, Swiatek was dominant in the first set but was heavily tested by Fett in the second set. Fett increasingly drew errors from the top seed as the match progressed, and held five break points to take a commanding 4-1 lead in the second set,” WTA Tennis writes.
“I’m very motivated to play well here,” Iga said after the match at the conference.
