The 2023 Wimbledon Tennis Championships has come to its second week. After a week of exciting competition among the players, the top eight teams in various competitions have also been successfully produced.
Iga Swiatek, the number one seed in this tournament and the back of the ball, also successfully advanced to the quarterfinals. In the recent round of sixteen, they defeated the Swiss player Belinda Bencic 6-7, 7-6, 6-3 to win the victory.
Swiatek’s opponent in the quarter-finals is the famous Ukrainian player Elina Svitolina. Svitolina is 28 years old this year. The 2020 Tokyo Olympics won the bronze medal in the women’s singles event. Svitolina also won the WTA Taiwan Open in 2017 when she was only 22 years old. Svitolina announced her engagement to fellow tennis player Gaël Monfils in April 2021 and gave birth to their daughter in October of the following year. Svitolina, who came back following childbirth, gradually recovered her original level. She reached the quarter-finals at the French Open held at the end of May, but lost to Aryna Sabalenka. Then she came to Wimbledon as a foreign card. After meeting Iga Swiatek in the quarterfinals.
The quarter-final match was staged on the Center Court at 1:30 pm local time. Swiatek made a 2-0 advantage at the start of the game with a break and a save. The seemingly good start has changed. After the ball, he managed to get a 5-3 lead in the first set, but lost four games in a row and lost the first set. One of the reasons was that Swiatek’s usual strong forehand suddenly mightn’t attack effectively, and he made many mistakes. There were a total of 16 unforced errors, and another factor that led to the comeback was Swiatek’s terrible second serve win rate, which was only 8%. It was a fatal injury to Swiatek, who was not strong in serving. It is almost equal to sending points directly to the opponent.
The game came to the second set. The two sides broke serve and entered a tiebreak. Swiatek fell behind 1-4 at one point. With nothing to retreat, he chased 3 points to stabilize his footsteps, and finally won the victory 7-5. Take the game to the final set. In the second set, Swiatek improved her first-serve scoring rate to 81%, and also raised her second-serve winning rate to 71%, which is a win for Swiatek, who continues to lose her forehand. One of the keys to this victory.
In the final set, Swiatek failed to turn the tide of the game. After losing five consecutive games, the general trend of the game was set. In the end, Swiatek lost to Svitolina 5-7, 7-6, 2-6. Wimbledon this year The journey stopped at the quarterfinals.
Throughout the game, Swiatek’s forehand might not be as strong as before, and she made many mistakes. After the game, Swiatek also mentioned that a large number of mistakes made her lose her concentration. Before the start of the second set, she closed the timeout on the roof During the time, she sought the help of the coaching staff, and it seemed that the effect was achieved in the second set, but in the end, she was the only one fighting on the court, and today she was in a sluggish state, unable to regain her momentum. In this game, Svitolina did not have any fear following facing the ball. His strong performance and fast pace beat the top seed Swiatek in the tournament and broke into the semi-finals of this Wimbledon.
Although Swiatek’s situation in this battle is not as good as before, and she can’t continue to advance to the semi-finals, but this tournament has set her own best record in Wimbledon. The world champion who is only 22 years old this year still has a long way to go. Many records are waiting for Swiatek to challenge. I believe she has learned a lot of experience in this Wimbledon. These will be one of the puzzles for Swiatek to create dominance in the future.
