The No. 1-ranked Swiatek cemented her status as the dominant figure in women's tennis when she defeated Ons Jabeur in the U.S. Open final on Saturday.
NEW YORK — Iga Swiatek beat Ons Jabeur 6-2, 7-6 in the U.S. Open final on Saturday to claim her first championship at Flushing Meadows and third Grand Slam title overall.
Swiatek's victory over No. 5 Jabeur improved her record in tour-level matches to 55-7 with seven trophies in 2022. Both of those figures lead the WTA. On Saturday, Swiatek had her first match point while leading 6-5 in the second as Jabeur served. Right before the point began, Swiatek jogged over to the sideline to change rackets — an unusual choice at that moment.
Jabeur, a 28-year-old from Tunisia, is the first African woman and first Arab woman to reach a Grand Slam final and was participating in her second in a row. But she is now 0-2 at that stage being the runner-up at Wimbledon in July.
