Swiatek Finds Her Fight in Tight US Open Victory
Iga Swiatek defeated Marie Bouzkova in a hard-fought straight-sets match to reach the fourth round at the US Open, winning 7-6, 7-6. She trailed by a break three times in the first set and also fell 0-3 behind in the second, but recovered each time to close out the match in straight sets.
This is her sixth consecutive second-week appearance at the US Open. She has previously progressed beyond this stage three times, including in each of her last two appearances.
Swiatek's performances this week have shown significant improvement, both mentally and physically, considering the struggles she faced earlier this year in closing out tight matches. Those difficulties contributed to several early exits and saw her drop out of the Top 5, but she has looked much stronger in recent weeks.
She has now won 13 of her last 14 matches on tour, including the title in Toronto, her only title in the last 12 months, as well as a semifinal appearance in Cincinnati.
Swiatek has a 14-8 record in Grand Slam round-of-16 matches, including a 6-5 record on hard courts. She has never faced a player ranked outside the Top 35 at this stage of a Grand Slam.

Qinwen Zheng Revives Her Season With a Remarkable Run
Qinwen Zheng produced an incredible comeback to reach the round of 16 at the US Open, defeating her opponent 1-6, 7-6, 7-5. She trailed 0-5 in the deciding set but completed an impressive turnaround by winning seven consecutive games, including saving a match point to seal the victory.
The 23-year-old has shown impressive resilience throughout this fortnight, winning six matches, including four consecutive three-setters. This is also the first time she has won more than two main-draw matches at a tournament since the French Open last year.
This run should provide a major confidence boost for the Chinese player, who failed to win a match in either of her two lead-up events and had recorded multiple wins only once in her previous eight tournaments before this week. She has also struggled with fitness issues and played a limited schedule this year.
Zheng has a 4-1 record in Grand Slam round-of-16 matches, winning her last four at this stage. Two of those victories came at the US Open, where she will now look to reach the quarterfinals once again.
