Swiatek dominates Sabalenka to clinch Italian Open title in Rome

Iga Swiatek clinched another championship victory in her stunning career so far, cruising past Aryna Sabalenka 6-2 6-3 to win the Italian Open.

The world No 1 dominated an opening set which saw her break Sabalenka twice, and wrap it up in just 35 minutes.

The second set proved vastly different, however, as Sabalenka proved the player on top for so long, but just could not break Swiatek despite seven break point chances.

Indeed, Sabalenka passed up five break points in the second game of the second set, and passed up another two in the fourth game as Swiatek somehow held on.

From there, the Pole struck and broke Sabalenka with her very first chance, visibly breaking the latter, who struggled to compete in the remainder.
