Iga Świątek’s Dubai Earnings Skyrocket, and She’s Not Done Yet

Iga Świątek put on a stellar performance against Dayana Yastremska, claiming a 7-5, 6-0 victory to secure her spot in the semifinals of the WTA 1000 tournament in Dubai. With this win, the Polish star has already earned a substantial amount, but her potential earnings could rise significantly as she progresses further. The tournament’s prize pool is truly remarkable.
Świątek has been in dominant form in Dubai. The world No. 2 stormed through the early rounds—receiving a first-round bye and then making quick work of Victoria Azarenka with a commanding 6-0, 6-2 win over the Belarusian.
The round of 16 presented a tougher challenge, as Yastremska managed to win five games in the opening set. However, Świątek quickly took control, closing out the match 7-5, 6-0, and adding yet another “bagel” (a 6-0 set) to her collection. With this victory, she advances to the quarterfinals, where she will face the sensational teenage talent, Mirra Andreeva.
