Wimbledon 2023: Swiatek vs Svitolina, quarterfinal preview, Head-to-head record, live streaming info

Top women’s seed Iga Swiatek faces wildcard Elina Svitolina in the quarterfinals of The Championships Wimbledon 2023 at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club (AELTC) in London on Tuesday.

The clash is scheduled to be the first match on the Centre Court on the ninth day of this year’s edition.

World No. 1 Swiatek comes into her maiden Wimbledon quarterfinal after a phenomenal win over Belinda Bencic where she saved two match points before clinching the fourth-round tie 6-7(4), 7-6(7), 6-3.

However, in her first three rounds, the Pole didn’t face a lot of challenge and went past Lin Zhu, Sara Sorribes Tormo, and Petra Martic without dropping a set.

Svitolina too played a thrilling fourth round match against Victoria Azarenka where she came back from a set down to win in the deciding set tiebreak, finishing the match with the scoreline 2-6, 6-4, 7-6(9).

The Ukrainian began her journey with a straight-sets win over fellow wildcard and five-time winner Venus Williams in the first round followed by victories over Elise Martens and Sofia Kenin in the next two rounds.

Svitolina will be making her second appearance in the last-eight stage of The Championships. She has previously reached the semifinals in 2019.
