At the US Open, Swiatek Breaks Seles' Record

Iga Swiatek made a successful start at the US Open, defeating Emiliana Arango in the first round with a score of 6-1, 6-2.

Beyond the victory, a new record has been broken: this marks the 65th consecutive first-round win for the Polish player on the WTA tour.

With this achievement, Swiatek now surpasses Monica Seles, who previously held the record.

Already a champion at Flushing Meadows in 2022, Swiatek enters the tournament as one of the top favorites for the final victory.

Doesn't count. Monica played clean and to the best of her abilities.

Plus, Monica didn't dope and cheat.

It's easy to do that when you're playing in one of the weakest era's of women's tennis

Some spectators should just shut up and think before they make comments. Remember, it can not be the worst tennis ever. All the best russians are still playing.
