Three-times champion Iga Swiatek has crushed Jessica Pegula in straight sets to advance to the Italian Open semi-finals.
Wimbledon champion Swiatek, the world No.3, is just a couple of places above the American Pegula in the rankings, but the gap between them appeared vast as the Pole took just 67 minutes to win 6-1 6-2 on a damp Wednesday morning in Rome.
Swiatek's impressive form bodes well for the upcoming French Open, where she'll be hunting for a fifth title.
