Iga Swiatek matched an outstanding Serena Williams statistic as she kept her title defence at the 2025 Madrid Open on track.

The world No 2 earned a strong 6-4, 6-2 third round victory over Linda Noskova at the WTA 1000 clay tournament.

Swiatek has contested some tough battles with Noskova, who beat her at the 2024 Australian Open, but she has now won her last five matches against the Czech and leads the head-to-head 6-1.

“I’m happy with my focus and my attitude today,” Swiatek said in her on-court interview. “It wasn’t easy at the beginning, but I’m happy I just kept calm, even when Linda broke me. It was a good match for sure.

“Every match that [Noskova and I] played was really with high intensity, and really good quality. I knew it’s going to be a challenge, but I just kept being focused on myself. And we kind of know each other’s game. I’m happy that I was more solid at the end.”

The Pole is seeking her first title since she secured her fourth French Open crown and fifth Grand Slam overall in June last year. She has not reached a final since her Roland Garros triumph.
