Jelena Ostapenko improves to 4-0 against Iga Swiatek
Iga Swiatek’s U.S. Open title defence ended with a 3-6, 6-3, 6-1 loss to Jelena Ostapenko in the fourth round on Sunday night.
“I knew I have to play my game,” Ostapenko said after accumulating 31 winners to 18 for Swiatek. “I knew I have to be aggressive, because that’s what she doesn’t really like.” After getting off to a terrific start to the second set, which she led 4-1, Ostapenko wavered for a bit. That allowed Swiatek to get a break back and pull within 4-3.With Swiatek having trouble serving – perhaps owing to all of the squeaking Ostapenko’s shoes did as she moved around during the ball toss while waiting to return – the contest quickly tilted in one direction. Ostapenko reeled off seven consecutive games to go up 5-0 in the third set.
