Iga Swiatek's dominance on the WTA Tour continued unabated as she secured her third Internazionali BNL d'Italia title in Rome, defeating Aryna Sabalenka in straight sets. The victory marked a significant milestone in her career, making her the first player to win four tour-level titles this year and the first to win both Madrid and Rome in the same year since 2013.
Swiatek's triumph in Rome was a testament to her unwavering consistency and exceptional form. She has now won all four of her titles this year at WTA 1000 events, a feat that underscores her status as the world's top-ranked player. Her victory in Rome also marked her 10th WTA title overall, a testament to her remarkable rise in the sport.
The match against Sabalenka was a rematch of their thrilling encounter in the Madrid final two weeks ago, where Swiatek prevailed in a nail-biting three-hour battle. However, in Rome, Swiatek displayed a clinical performance, controlling the match from start to finish. She broke Sabalenka's serve twice in the first set and once in the second set, securing the victory with a comfortable 6-2, 6-3 scoreline.
Swiatek's victory in Rome has further solidified her position as the favorite for the upcoming French Open. She has now won 21 tour-level titles in her career, including two Grand Slams, and her current form suggests that she is poised to add to her tally in Paris.
