No. 1 seed Iga Swiatek eased into the third round of the Australian Open on Wednesday as she beat Camila Osorio of Colombia 6-2, 6-3.
In a match played with the roof closed because of rain, the Polish player was broken when serving for the match at 5-1 but sealed victory two games later.
“I think it was much tougher than the score says,” Swiatek said. ” It was really intense physically. She didn’t give me many points for free.
“It was tough but I am happy that I was consistent in being proactive,” she added. “I’m pretty happy that I won and can play the next round.”
There will be no play on the outside courts until at least 1:30 p.m. local time because of rain.
