Iga Świątek (1. WTA) started the US Open in a very good style and did not lose even a set in the first three matches. She has already won against Kamilla Rakhimova (104. WTA), Ena Shibahara (217. WTA) and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova (27. WTA), and now it is time to face the third Russian on her path. This time it will be Ludmila Samsonova (16. WTA).
Iga Świątek – Ludmila Samsonova in the fourth round of the US Open. Where to watch the Świątek match today?
Samsonova is the highest-ranked and probably the best-fit opponent of Świątek at the US Open so far. The Russian recently reached the quarterfinals in Cincinnati, and at the Grand Slam she has already won against Qiang Wang (438. WTA), Marie Bouzkova (45. WTA) and Ashlyn Krueger (59. WTA). She only lost a set against the Czech.
Of course, Świątek will be the clear favorite in the match, and this is indicated not only by her position in the ranking, but also by her recent meetings with Samsonowa. The Polish player's record with this opponent is 3-0 and 6-1 in sets. Samsonowa was only able to “snatch” the game from the Pole in Stuttgart in 2022, when their clash lasted over three hours. She lost in 2023 in Dubai and in the final in Beijing, where Świątek won 6-2, 6-2 in just 70 minutes.
Both women will play for the quarterfinals – for Samsonova it would be the best result in her career at the Grand Slam, and for Świątek a breakthrough at the US Open, where she won in 2022, and last year she was eliminated in the fourth round. The winner will play in the quarterfinals with Jessica Pegula (6. WTA), who defeated Diana Shnaider (18. WTA).
