Both tennis players started from the 1/64 final. On the way to the semi-finals, Iga Sventek lost only 1 set to their opponents. This happened in the match against Jule Niemeyer (Germany, WTA 108), where the Polish representative lost the 1st set and even with a timeout in the 2nd game, but managed to go further, reversing the game. Sventek also defeated Jasmine Paolini (Italy, WTA 56), Sloane Stephens (USA, WTA 51), Lauren Davis (USA, WTA 105) and Jessica Pegula (USA, WTA 8). Since Iga’s match against Davis, where they lost 1:4 in Game 2, polka has been playing far from the most stable matches. As mentioned above, Iga had a tough match with Niemeyer and also played indecisively on the court against Jessica Pegula in the 1/4 final, where Iga missed three timeouts in the 2nd set and did not serve twice for the match.

Arina Sobolenko played two sets of 3 and defeated her opponents three times in two sets. Arina defeated Katherine Harrison (USA, WTA 243), Kaya Sofa (Estonia, WTA 34), Clara Burel (France, WTA 131), Danielle Collins (USA, WTA 19) and Karolina Pliskova (Czech Republic, WTA 22) .

Sventek has won 37 games this year and won 6 trophies: tough tournaments in Doha (Qatar), Indian Wells (USA) and Miami (USA) as well as 3 more on the ground including Rolan Garros. Swiatek became the first Polish tennis player to reach the semi-finals of the US Open.

Sobolenko has suffered all season due to his numerous double faults and is only now starting to somehow rectify the situation. He played twice in the WTA finals in 2022 and lost twice. She received her last trophy in May of 2021.

Tennis players played each other 4 times. In personal meetings, the score is 3:1 in favor of Iga. Note that Sventek achieved these 3 victories in 2022 and one of them was in the Stuttgart (Germany, clay) final.

The tennis players will take the field at approximately 03:30 Kyiv time after the match between Caroline Garcia and Ons Jaber.
