Ann Li vs Iga Swiatek prediction
Ann Li reached the quarter-finals of a WTA 1000 event for the first time in her career after getting past Janice Tjen in straight sets. The American, who defeated top seed and four-time major champion Aryna Sabalenka in round three, was not broken on serve as she wrapped up a 6-1 7-6 (1) victory.
She now faces Iga Swiatek in the next round. Swiatek kept her hopes of qualifying for the WTA Finals alive with a comfortable victory over Ashlyn Krueger. She saved seven out of eight break point opportunities on her way to winning 6-1 6-4. The former world number one is seeking a second 1000 title of the campaign, following success at the Canadian Open.
They played against each other for the first time at the Madrid Open this year, with Li winning after Swiatek was forced to retire in the deciding set. The 25-year-old has been largely untroubled at the event so far, and she will be the heavy favourite to progress.
