Stat of the Day: Iga Swiatek has now won her last 9 matches against Top 10 players

Iga Swiatek’s incredible 37-match, six-tournament winning streak may have ended at Wimbledon, but another one of her streaks is still very much intact.

On Arthur Ashe Stadium on Thursday night, Swiatek extended her winning streak against Top 10 players to nine matches in a row, after a 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 victory over No. 6-ranked Aryna Sabalenka in the semifinals of the US Open.

She hasn’t lost to a Top 10 player since falling to then-No. 1 Ashleigh Barty, 6-2, 6-4, in the semifinals of Adelaide in January, two weeks before the Australian Open.
