Swiatek - Zheng Jingwen: Olympic Match Forecast

It was quite expected that Swiatek made it to the semi-finals of the Olympics, confirming her status as the main favorite for the gold medal. However, it cannot be said that the Polish tennis player's path was too easy. In the quarter-finals, she gave up a set to Collins, after which the American withdrew from the game in the decisive set. Before that, there was not the easiest match against Xiu Wang (6-3, 6-4). At the same time, the world's number one racket did not stand on ceremony with the Frenchwoman Parry (6-1, 6-1).

Zheng Jingwen has developed a winning streak on clay to nine matches. Let us recall that on the eve of the start in Paris, the Chinese tennis player won the tournament in Palermo. In the capital of France, the seventh racket of the world did not experience any problems at the start in matches with Errani and Rus, whom she beat with an exact score of 2-0 in sets. Later, she had two tough confrontations with Navarro and Kerber. With the experienced German, it came to a decisive tie-break, where luck was on the side of Zheng Jingwen (6-7, 6-4, 7-6).
