MELBOURNE — Everything came so easily for Iga Swiatek during a 6-1, 6-0 victory over Emma Raducanu Saturday in the only Australian Open women’s third-round match between two past Grand Slam champions — if you thought that meant it would be close, you’d have been rather wrong — that this was how she described it:
Swiatek, who agreed to accept a one-month suspension in a doping case late last year, owns four trophies from the French Open and one from the U.S. Open. She's never been beyond the semifinals in Australia; she lost in that round to Danielle Collins in 2022. A year ago, Swiatek was upset in the third round by teenager Linda Noskova.
Monfils joined Roger Federer as the only men to achieve this age-defying feat, before Svitolina eliminated No. 4 seed Jasmine Paolini later in the day.
