As the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris approach, the excitement surrounding the women’s tennis tournament is palpable, particularly for fans of Poland’s Iga Świątek. The tournament schedule kicks off with the first round on July 27-28 and culminates with the final on August 3, promising a week of high-stakes matches featuring some of the sport’s top talents.
Iga Świątek will begin her quest for gold against Irina-Camelia Begu in the first round. Advancing past Begu, Świątek could face either Nadia Podoroska or Diane Perry in the second round, both of whom have demonstrated their competitive prowess in previous tournaments. The third round may present even tougher challenges, with potential opponents like Linda Noskova, Xiyu Wang, Elisabetta Cocciaretto, or Diana Shnaider—rising stars eager to make their mark.
The intensity ramps up in the quarterfinals, where seasoned players such as Jelena Ostapenko, Dajana Jastremska, Caroline Wozniacki, or Danielle Collins could await Świątek. Each of these competitors brings significant experience and skill, setting the stage for thrilling matches. The semifinal round could be a showdown with major contenders like Naomi Osaka, Angelique Kerber, Karolina Muchova, or Leylah Fernandez, any of whom could pose a serious threat to Świątek’s gold medal aspirations.
Should Świątek reach the final, she could face top-tier athletes like Jessica Pegula, Elina Svitolina, Barbora Krejcikova, or Coco Gauff, ensuring a match of the highest calibre. Świątek’s journey in Paris is laden with potential hurdles, but her consistent performance and resilience make her one of the favourites.
