- No 1 seed defeats Italian opponent 6-3, 6-0 at Flushing Meadows
- Garbiñe Muguruza through after 6-3, 7-6 win over Clara Tauson
Iga Swiatek says she is trying to be more accepting of the conditions and her surroundings as she looks to re-establish the magic of her mid-season breakthrough winning streak. The Pole took a positive step forward in the Tuesday afternoon heat as she moved past Jasmine Paolini of Italy 6-3, 6-0 to reach the second round of the US Open.
The second set was Swiatek’s 18th 6-0 of the 2022 season. Only Serena Williams, who won 25 sets by the score of 6-0 in 2013, has won more in a single season.
