The United States, defending United Cup champions, were eliminated this Saturday just short of the final by Poland in the decisive doubles.

A tight match that saw Coco Gauff, as last year, defeat world No. 2 Iga Swiatek (6-4, 6-2) on the Sydney court.

Swiatek's New Nemesis?

After 12 encounters she posted a record of one win to eleven losses against the Pole, Gauff has turned things around. She has won their last four head-to-heads, each time in straight sets.

An impressive streak that makes her the second player on tour (after Jelena Ostapenko) to beat Swiatek four times in a row.
