Unfortunately, it was the last game of this match. Kalinska used the third championship ball. Thus, the Russian stops her streak of eight matches without defeat.

The Pole returned to the game. Świątek’s determination and effectiveness know no limits. Kalinska had a breakthrough advantage, but only one.

Something incredible! Świątek saved two match points and used the second chance to make it 3:5. in the second set. The Polish woman does not give up!

The second break point was used by Kalinska. Unfortunately, the Pole is only one game away from being eliminated from the tournament.

Kalinska continues to maintain a stable level of play. It practically does not go below a certain level. The Russian is getting closer to triumph.

A great game by the Pole, who won ‘dry’.

Kalinska still maintains a high level of serving and stable play. The Pole will have to look for a breakthrough in another game.

We have a game in favor of the Polish woman. The rivals allowed them to score one point.

Kalinska maintained her service. In this game, the Pole made a lot of unforced errors.

The Pole failed to defend the break. Making a mistake, Świątek lost the first game in the second set. The Russian has the advantage of breaking through.

Kalinska withstood the pressure on her own serve and won the first game. This is the first set lost for the Pole since losing the match against Czech Linda Noskova in the 3rd round of the Australian Open.

In the next game, the Polish server had to chase her opponent. An ineffective forehand down the line gave Kalinska her second break in a row.

Świątek broke a streak of six points in a row for Kalinska, who led to a draw after defending a break-through opportunity. This is the second game in a row for the Russian.

In the next one, the roles were reversed. The Russian had three break points. The opponent’s slight relaxation and determination led to a return break. The Pole lost ”dryly”.

The Pole started very impressively, with a 40-0 lead on Kalinska’s serve. However, from that point forward she made two straight backhand errors, throwing the ball over the end line. After a great exchange (the best in the match so far), the Pole was rewarded with a fourth break. She didn’t waste another one, finishing the action with a cross-country backhand shot.

The successful first serve turned out to be crucial here. This is the shortest game in this match so far. Świątek holds the pass again and takes the lead.

Once again, the server triumphed. The 25-year-old opponent showed an effective pass in the final phase.

Another game in which the server and returner had a lot to say. This time there was no chance to break through. The Polish woman’s backhand put her in the lead in the match. The Russian didn’t make it to the pike, which turned out to be the winner.

Now the White and Reds had the ball to break. However, foul play by the 22-year-old from Raszyn and Anna Kalinska’s serve led to a draw.

Iga Świątek’s long service game is behind us. The Pole saved two break points and won after seven minutes of play.
