|July 10, 2025
IGA Swiatek said she had "goosebumps" after reaching the Wimbledon semifinals for the first time in her illustrious career with a 6-2, 7-5 win against Russia's Liudmila Samsonova on Wednesday.
The Polish eighth seed will face former Olympic champion Belinda Bencic for a place in Saturday's final. Bencic, on the comeback trail, beat teen Mirra Andreeva 7-6(3), 7-6(2). Swiatek has won four titles on the clay at the French Open, as well as the US Open in 2022, but has struggled on the lawns of the All England Club.
Her previous best result at Wimbledon was a run to the quarterfinals in 2023.
