The Pole, who reached the perfect quarter-final of her profession on the All England Membership final yr, might face former Wimbledon champion Angelique Kerber or Katerina Siniakova within the third spherical and – if the seeds maintain – she’s going to face Jelena Ostapenko within the spherical of 16.
Swiatek has a profession file of 9-4 at Wimbledon.
