Swiatek crushes Sabalenka to reach Italian Open final & More News Here

May 14 (Reuters) – World primary Iga Swiatek swept apart third-seeded Aryna Sabalenka 6-2 6-1 in a lopsided contest in Rome on Saturday to advance to an Italian Open final in opposition to Ons Jabeur.

Swiatek prolonged her profitable run to 27 matches, matching the tally set by Serena Williams in 2015, as she outclassed Sabalenka in simply over an hour to reach her fifth consecutive WTA final.

“I’m just constantly surprising myself that I an do better and better,” Poland’s Swiatek stated.

“I really feel like I truly can consider now that the sky is the restrict. That’s the enjoyable half, for certain.

“At these tournaments the place we play day after day, we do not actually get time to have fun… But I do know that afterwards I’m going to be actually pleased with myself.”

Swiatek broke Sabalenka twice in the opening set to build a 3-1 lead before closing it out in around 30 minutes and continued the onslaught as she went 4-0 ahead in the second.

World number eight Sabalenka, who won only two of her service games, received a medical timeout at 4-1 down but it only delayed the inevitable.

Sabalenka finished with 31 unforced errors, twice as many as Swiatek who hit 15 winners en route to victory to equal Williams’ streak which began in the 2014 WTA finals.

The 20-year-old improved her overall head-to-head record with Sabalenka to 3-1, having also won both of their meetings earlier this year — the Stuttgart final and Doha quarter-finals — in straight sets.

“I’m fairly completely satisfied that I discovered the teachings from earlier matches,” Swiatek said. “I felt like I used to be letting my opponents come again a bit of bit. This time, I needed to put stress on from the start till the tip.”

Swiatek will take on Tunisia’s Jabeur in Sunday’s final after she beat Daria Kasatkina 6-4 1-6 7-5 to claim her 11th victory on the bounce having won her first WTA 1000 title in Madrid last week.

Ninth seed Jabeur took a topsy-turvy opening set where neither player was able to get into a rhythm but Kasatkina continued to play aggressively in the second and dominated as unforced errors began creeping into her opponent’s game.

Jabeur was unable to put away a straightforward smash in the decider and handed Kasatkina a break point at 4-4 before she saved a match point in the next game and broke back to level, closing out the win with a trademark drop shot.

“Ons is a fairly tough participant with all of the slices and drop pictures, altering of rhythm,” Swiatek stated.

“I’ve performed in opposition to her a couple of instances, it was at all times onerous. It’s going to be a pleasant final and he or she deserves to be there.”
