Iga Swiatek’s Wimbledon campaign — and 37-match winning streak — was ended by Alize Cornet on Saturday afternoon, who beat the world No. 1 6-4 6-2. The 21-year-old was the big favourite going into the Championships, and despite motoring through a winning run where she won six WTA titles in a row, had some doubters questioning whether she could go all the way at Wimbledon.

The tension between Stefanos Tsitsipas and Nick Kyrgios spilled over into the press conference room following their ill-tempered clash at Wimbledon on Saturday when the Greek accused his Australian opponent of having an "evil side".
LONDON: Stefanos Tsitsipas said Nick Kyrgios has an “evil side” after a stormy clash at Wimbledon on Saturday in which the victorious Australian called for his Greek opponent to be kicked out of the tournament. The bad-tempered match overshadowed the rest of the action on day six, which included the end of Iga Swiatek’s 37-match winning streak and a routine victory for Rafael Nadal. The mercurial Kyrgios prevailed 6-7 (2/7), 6-4, 6-3, 7-6 (9/7) in an incident-packed third-round match on Court One. The contest descended into mayhem when a frustrated Tsitsipas hit the ball into the crowd after losing the second set. Kyrgios told the umpire that Tsitsipas should be kicked out of Wimbledon, recalling the incident at the US Open in 2020 when Novak Djokovic was defaulted from the tournament after hitting a line judge with a ball. “You can’t hit a ball into the crowd and hit someone and not get defaulted,” said the 27-year-old, who received an audible obscenity warning during the match. He kept up his verbal jousting with the umpire, clearly unsettling Tsitsipas, who was warned over the incident and later handed a point penalty for hitting the ball in frustration toward the back of the court. The bad feeling bubbled up again in post-match press conferences, with fourth seed Tsitsipas saying it felt like a “circus.”
