Swiatek Crushes Raducanu, Monfils Stuns Fritz At Australian Open
Iga Swiatek delivered a commanding performance to breeze past Emma Raducanu on Saturday, securing a spot in the Australian Open last 16.
Meanwhile, 38-year-old Gael Monfils shocked fourth-seed Taylor Fritz in a thrilling upset.
In a lopsided clash between two former US Open champions, Swiatek triumphed 6-1, 6-0, showcasing her determination to claim her maiden title in Melbourne.
Swiatek, a five-time Grand Slam winner, has never advanced beyond the semi-finals at this tournament. She next faces world number 128, Eva Lys, who became the first womans lucky loser to reach the fourth round since the Australian Open moved to Melbourne Park in 1988.
Elsewhere, American Emma Navarro fought hard for a 6-4, 3-6, 6-4 victory over three-time Slam finalist Ons Jabeur.
