Swiatek vs Bencic LIVE!
Iga Swiatek continues her bid for a first Wimbledon title as she plays Belinda Bencic on Centre Court this afternoon. The world number one has already matched her best run at SW19, but will be eyeing much more as she looks to reach the second week.
Petra Martic was Swiatek’s toughest test so far, though the Pole dropped only seven games in that third-round match. With Elena Rybakina and Aryna Sabalenka now beginning to hit top form, it is Swiatek’s turn to make a latest statement of intent.
Bencic has never made it beyond the fourth round at Wimbledon, but beat Swiatek when they met at the US Open two years ago and is certainly capable of causing the top seed big problems. The 26-year-old swept past Magda Linette in the previous round, having already knocked out Danielle Collins and Britain’s Katie Swan.
