NEW YORK: Iga Swiatek was on a red-hot streak earlier this year, winning six titles including Ro -land Garros in that stretch, but that run was snapped at Wimbledon and it has been a bumpy ride since.
During the American hard-court swing, where she lost in the round-of-16 in Toronto and Cincinnati, she spoke about the conditions and the weight of the ball, which were a concern. At the US Open this fortnight the 21-year-old has played through those issues to make her third Grand Slam final, her first on hard court.
