In the first four games of the match, both players traded three breaks, but then Swiatek started to inch ahead by consolidating the second break of Stephens' ...

The world number one’s draw is now opening up, and there’s no reason to believe that she shouldn’t progress far into the tournament with the potential matches ahead of her. Stephens had previously won the 2017 US Open, and would have been hoping for another triumph on home turf, but she faced a considerable challenge in the form of the Polish player. From then on, Swiatek gradually moved towards the finish line, and although Stephens made her work for the games she needed, she was unable to mount a real fightback to prevent the two-time Grand Slam champion from winning the first set.

Swiatek takes out Davis, into fourth round of US Open (WTA Tennis)

At times Saturday, Iga Swiatek was out of rhythm against Lauren Davis, but the top-ranked player stepped up during the key moments to reach the fourth round ...

The last (and only other) time she faced a World No.1, she played a heroic match, losing to Simona Halep 15-13 in the third set at the 2018 Australian Open. Swiatek rose to the No.1 ranking back in April after Barty announced her retirement. A quarterfinalist at Wimbledon earlier in the summer, Niemeier stunned Zheng Qinwen 6-4, 7-6(5) to make the Round of 16 in her tournament debut. Davis came back in the second, taking the first three games. Davis saved three break points in the next game and eventually held. This equals Swiatek’s best result at the US Open, her 2021 run.

“Yeah, I'm just happy that they not showing it so much that they kind of envy. “Yeah, I took care of that and I just tried to take it point by point when I was losing 0-3. To which she responded: “Honestly I didn't even focus on that 'cause I still remember how it is to lose. Well, I got, like, positive feedback even from Alize Cornet when she won and ended that streak. I wasn't expecting maybe too much because of the losses, so that's good. It's not like the whole universe changed so right now I'm always going to be in quarter-finals or finals or whatever, win tournaments. Last year I remember when I was in Madrid I think, I just talk with Daria actually. The defeat to Alize Cornet at Wimbledon ended Swiatek’s 37-game winning streak. Sometimes I wasn't ready for it when she was changing that rhythm. But I'm happy I was fighting till the end.” I'm pretty happy I made it through and could close it in second set and come back. Yeah, that was pretty important for me.

'Below the belt' - John McEnroe questions Iga Swiatek's distraction ... (Eurosport.com)

John McEnroe questioned whether Iga Swiatek was a “bit below the belt” in seemingly trying to distract Lauren Davis during their third-round US Open match.

I remember Jo-Wilfried Tsonga used to do that but it’s actually a distraction to the opponent.” “She played pretty smart. “The last time I saw that was when I was playing in 1986 I believe and [Mansour] Bahrami came in and served, and put his hands wide open and said, ‘Hit me’. I don’t think that’s legal…that is a little bit below the belt.

It was perhaps an attempt to distract Davis, though, that did not seem to work, with Davis still coming away with a point. However, tennis legend and now analyst John McEnroe did not seem to fully enjoy what he saw from Iga Swiatek in that match, as he appeared to criticize a particular tactic by the Polish star. Although the move didn’t work as Davis put away the short ball to win the point, Eurosport expert McEnroe said: “I don’t know about that.
