Iga Swiatek continues her remarkable winning streak with a triumphant victory over Caroline Garcia in the United Cup semifinals, securing Poland’s spot in the final. Swiatek’s three-set win, with a scoreline of 4-6, 6-1, 6-1, marks her 15th consecutive victory—a feat that now stands as her second-longest winning streak.
This impressive run began at the close of 2023 when Iga Swiatek claimed back-to-back titles in Beijing and the WTA Finals. Now, at the United Cup in 2024, she maintains an unblemished 4-0 record in the team event. The current streak surpasses her 14-match run between Roland Garros and Wimbledon last year and stands as a testament to her consistent dominance on the tour.
Swiatek’s longest winning streak remains a colossal 37 matches, achieved between Doha and Wimbledon in 2022—the longest WTA winning streak since 1997. Her latest triumphs underscore her exceptional form, solidifying her status as a force to be reckoned with in women’s tennis.
In her 15-match winning streak, Iga Swiatek has dropped only two sets, both to the same opponent, Garcia. These setbacks occurred in the quarterfinals of Beijing last fall and the United Cup semifinals. The Polish sensation’s ability to bounce back and maintain her winning momentum reflects her mental resilience and skill on the court.
