by Edgar Jibran | in Tennis Picks
The last match in the calendar of the WTA 1000 in Madrid for next Thursday, April 25th is going to have Iga Swiatek and Xiyu Wang as the protagonists, confrontation that obviously has Swiatek as the favorite even when she hasn’t had the best of her performances during her last two tournaments disputed in Miami and Stuttgart.
On that regard, Iga Swiatek lost a streak of 4 consecutive victories when she failed to advance to her third consecutive final in the WTA 500 in Stuttgart, however, she accumulates a streak of 5 matches in a row winning at least 1 set per match. Therefore, this tournament in Madrid is a great opportunity for her to have personal revenge, not only because of her recent results, but also because she lost the final in the 2023 edition of this tournament against Aryna Sabalenka in 3 sets.
In Xiyu Wang’s case, this Chinese player is having a good 2024 season even when she isn’t that popular between the tennis fanatics, being her best tournament the WTA 250 in Austin, where she was able to reach the final that unfortunately she lost in two straight sets against Yue Yuan (4-6, 6-7). In addition, she had a big battle against Ana Bogdan during the first round of this tournament, being remarkable that she was able to comeback after losing the first set (6-7, 7-6, 6-2).
