Iga Swiatek Dominates Indian Wells Quarterfinals: Aiming for Historic Third Win

Iga Swiatek defeated Karolina Muchova 6-1, 6-1 to advance to the Indian Wells quarterfinals. The two-time champion seeks to make history by winning the tournament three times, following her suspension last year. Swiatek showcased a nearly flawless performance, leaving Muchova unable to compete.

Iga Swiatek sealed a decisive victory over Karolina Muchova, winning 6-1, 6-1 to reach the Indian Wells quarterfinals. The Polish tennis star, a two-time champion, continues her dominant performance in the tournament, aiming to achieve a historic third win at the 1000-level event.

Swiatek, who served a suspension last year, has not lost momentum since her return, dropping only six games in the tournament so far. She maintained a near-flawless performance against Muchova, delivering numerous winners and committing just four errors.

Following a rain delay, Swiatek took control from the start, maintaining a strong serve throughout. Muchova, recovering from wrist surgery, struggled to keep pace. Swiatek's unreturnable serve concluded the match in 57 minutes, setting up her next encounter against either Zheng Qinwen or Marta Kostyuk.
