In US Open, Former World No.1 Iga Swiatek cruised into the second round, beating Emiliana Arango 6-1, 6-2 at sun-kissed Arthur Ash Stadium in New York yesterday. She marched into next round in exactly one hour, winning her seventh successive opening round clash.
Next up, she will play Suzan Lamens of the Netherlands tomorrow. Swiatek, who had snapped a 13-month title drought in July by capturing her first Wimbledon title and backed that up by lifting the Cincinnati trophy for the first time two weeks ago, is hoping to become the first WTA star to win the Wimbledon and US Open titles in the same calendar year since Serena Williams in 2012.
