“I wasn’t expecting to win this match, so I’m happy that I just did my job,” Swiatek said following the victory.

“I knew how I wanted to play and I just went for it,” the 24-year-old added.

“I’m happy I kept the momentum going until the end of the match, Jasmine, you can’t let her get back in the game because she’s a fighter,” Swiatek said crediting her opponent.

Swiatek surrendered her opening service game on the day but hit back immediately to break back before closing out the opening set with five more games on the trot. Paolini did fare marginally better in the second set, however, she was no match for the Pole who closed out the matchup in straight sets in dominant fashion.

Swiatek will take on either American Jessica Pegula or Czech Linda Noskova in the summit clash of the grass-court event which serves as a tune up to the prestigious Wimbledon.

Swiatek, who has managed to clinch five Grand Slam titles in her nascent career, will face Russian Polina Kudermetova in her Wimbledon 2025 opener at the SW19. The Pole has clinched four of her major crowns on clay at the French Open with the other one coming at the US Open.

Paolini will begin her quest for the coveted Wimbledon title with her fixture against Latvian Anastasija Sevastova.
