DUBAI: The Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships’ top three seeds remain in contention for WTA1000 glory after successfully navigating their respective routes into Thursday’s quarter-finals.
Iga Swiatek barely worked up a sweat on Wednesday in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, yet she still registered two wins at the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships.
Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka remain on course to meet in the final of the Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships after coming through their last-16 matches in contrasting fashion. World No. 1 Swiatek recorded another dominant win as she beat Liudmila Samsonova 6-1 6-0 – and then got a bye into the semi-finals as Karolina Pliskova withdrew from the tournament due to illness.
February 22, 2022 wasn’t the day where it all started for Iga Swiatek, but in many ways it was. This time last year, Swiatek was not the star name on the WTA Tour. Ad Sure, she had won the French Open in super impressive fashion in October 2020, won in Adelaide at the start of 2021, and dismantled former world No.
World number one Iga Swiatek said she hopes the governing body of the women's game can do more to boost the tour in 2023 and further reduce pay disparity between the sexes outside the sport's biggest tournaments. Tennis has sought to be a leader in the battle for equality in the last couple of decades with equal prize money offered to men and women at the four Grand Slams. WTA Tour events, however, still often offer less prize money than those on the men's tour which operates its own circuit.
