Iga Sfiodek was left out of the Poland Open with Caroline Garcia putting on a great performance and beating the WTA World No.1.
After two hours and 19 minutes, the Frenchwoman, No45 in the world ranking, reached the big victory against the Polish tennis player, denying her the opportunity to celebrate the title in her hometown of Warsaw.
In the semi-finals the Garcia will face the Italian Jasmine Paolini (No. 58) against the background of the presence in the grand final of the event. It is worth noting that the Swordfish lost the streak of 18 consecutive victories on a clay surface that he maintained until today’s match. In addition, the Swordfish this year he won Roland Garros, while he was in the semi-finals of the Australian Grand Slam.
At the recent Wimbledon, the other streak of 37 consecutive victories was stopped again by a Frenchwoman, Alize Cornet (No. 38). She has been at the top of the WTA since April 4 last year after the retirement of Ashley Barty from the courts, who intends to fulfill her dreams outside of tennis.
