1-ranked Swiatek steeled herself and dispensed with a pair of match points. I'm happy that I kind of kept my belief and I just played and I didn't look back," Swiatek said. Swiatek headed to the locker room after that set and seemed to be back to her best immediately, finally breaking and eventually going up 3-1. But she let that advantage slip away by dropping the next three games and suddenly needed to erase the match points while behind 6-5. "I'm just happy that I won it," Swiatek said, "cause it feels I'm going the right direction."
