Conclusion
Iga świątek is in the quarter -finals of Wimbledon for the second time after 2023 and can book your ticket for the last four for the first time! After slight start -ups, the Polish Clara Tauson certainly defeats 6: 4 and 6: 1. The Danish could not build on her strong performances from the last rounds today and also had to struggle with health problems. So Tauson could not transport two early breaks in the first set and then had no chance against an increasingly self -confident Iga świątek in the second round. In the end, there are strong 18 winners in the Statistics of the Polish, which was able to use their first match ball after only 65 minutes. In the quarter -finals, Liudmila Samsonova is waiting for Iga świątek. Bye from London and next time!
21:09
Świątek – Tauson 6: 4, 6: 1
In the style of a Grand Slam winner, Iga świątek plays that very confidently. The Polishin chases her opponent across the square and quickly has three match balls. Another good first serve after and the match is already through.
21:07
Świątek – Tauson 6: 4, 5: 1
That should be the preliminary decision! Tauson has to go back over the second, świątek bangs the return of the longline and now leads with the double break.
21:06
Świątek – Tauson 6: 4, 4: 1
Now this could end very quickly! While Tauson hardly finds the first serves in the second set, świątek acts with a full focus and keeps her opponent made long distances. The Polish partly plays sensational angles and thus gets the next two break balls.
21:02
Świątek – Tauson 6: 4, 4: 1
Now the świątek-Express is rolling more and more unstoppable! With two aces in series, the five-time major winner seals the next safe service game and increases to 4: 1.
20:59
Świątek – Tauson 6: 4, 3: 1
Wow! The first two options leave świątek quite lightly and then makes the break clear on the hard tour. Tauson builds up the point and moves up, but the Polish defends herself brilliantly, even brings back a smash and then happens to Tauson with the backhand cross to 3: 1.
20:56
Świątek – Tauson 6: 4, 2: 1
Clara Tauson is struggling with too many things today who do not have to do with the game. First it was the shoes, then the air and now it is the knees. Świątek knows exactly what to do, the Danish no longer gives slight points and gets the next three break chances.
20:53
Świątek – Tauson 6: 4, 2: 1
At the return, too, Tauson wants to go more aggressively again, but keeps this with two quick mistakes. Three game balls quickly stand for Iga świątek ready and seconds later a clever forehandball against the direction of Tausosn ensures the leadership.
20:50
Świątek – Tauson 6: 4, 1: 1
Tauson is now playing very aggressively, keeps going to the lines and is rewarded with two game balls. The 22-year-old sends a strong first afterwards and earns the 1-1.
20:48
Świątek – Tauson 6: 4, 1: 0
It is now of course incredibly important for Tauson to stay in the match and keep the serve. Because an increasingly self -confident Iga świątek is truly not an easy task. The Danish also does the first point, but is then played in the classic manner and collects the 15:15.
20:46
Świątek – Tauson 6: 4, 1: 0
Clara Tauson is visibly frustrated that she cannot act in top shape here and is annoyed by every lost point. Iga świątek cannot be disturbed by the unusual situation, plays her boot down very cleanly and packs the first game without losing points.
20:44
Świątek – Tauson 6: 4, 0: 0
Clara Tauson now has to take a Medical Timeout and apparently gets a spray enough to improve your breathing. Let’s hope that this helps and the Danish can play her best tennis here.
20:43
Conclusion of the sentence
A strange first round goes 6: 4 to Iga świątek! The favorite Polish initially had an ARGE problem with the service and was lying back twice with break, but Clara Tauson could not capitalize on it. The Danish apparently has problems with her slippery shoes and also with her breathing, which seems to be somehow impaired. At the back, świątek became more and more secure and played out her class in the crucial moment.
20:41
Świątek – Tauson 6: 4
And then it has already happened. A double mistake of Tausons seals the first set after 36 minutes, which goes 6: 4 to Iga świątek.
20:39
Świątek – Tauson 5: 4
Tauson is brave at the sentence ball on the accelerator pedal and scores with the backhand against the świątek’s running direction. Afterwards the Danish dropped out again and the next set ball is there.
20:38
Świątek – Tauson 5: 4
Tauson puts a lot of pressure, but świątek is nimble on foot, defends itself strongly and balances at 30:30. Then the polinian bangs a strong return in front of her opponent’s feet and forces the first set ball.
20:35
Świątek – Tauson 5: 4
What about the nerves of Clara Tauson that has to serve against loss of sentence? Świątek is of course fully there now, moves the Danish well and promptly gets the mistake. A successful combination of the first surcharge through the middle and back hand winner ensures the 15:15.
20:33
Świątek – Tauson 5: 4
Now it goes back and forth here. Świątek also serves more and more secure, then always has the upper hand in the rallies and races to 40: 0. Another double error pulls the game in length for a few seconds, but then the next return error in Tausons seals the 5: 4.
20:30
Świątek – Tauson 4: 4
This is how Clara Tauson introduces this. And so the Danish has to play it if she wants to have a chance against Iga świątek. With massive first serves, the 22-year-old always brings himself to good field positions, then makes steam with the forehand and collects one point after the other. Without loss of points it goes 4: 4.
20:26
Świątek – Tauson 4: 3
Świątek is now a little more quota with the service and that pays off immediately. Tauson continues to move very unsafe, does not stand well with the blows and fires the balls in the meter throughout the meters. Świątek becomes increasingly confident, rushes to 40: 0 and a little later uses her second game ball for her first tour in this match.
20:24
Świątek – Tauson 3: 3
So far, the game cannot take a rhythm at all, since all points are ended by an error after a maximum of three blows. In her service game, Tauson makes one too much of it and gives świątek the break again.
20:23
Świątek – Tauson 2: 3
Iga świątek still didn’t really work. Although she moves well and is mostly on the ball in time, the Polishin produces slight mistakes. Cllara Tauson can now no longer capitalize on it, as it first fails with the surcharge and then crossed the forehand. 15:40!
20:19
Świątek – Tauson 2: 3
Slowly but surely also returns to IGA świątek calm. The five-time Grand Slam winner opens with her first ace, follows two service winners and, in turn, quickly has a 40: 0 on the board. A little later, Tauson’s backhandlice sticks to the power edge and świątek also keeps her serve for the first time.
20:17
Świątek – Tauson 1: 3
Clara Tauson, on the other hand, now finds a few of her crashing first serves and gets so many free points. The first ace is also there and brings the 22-year-old three game balls. Świątek has a slight return error followed and it is 3: 1
20:14
Świątek – Tauson 1: 2
What kind of prelude to Iga świątek is that? The Polish is already with four double defects and also releases its second service game and without a sound.
20:12
Świątek – Tauson 1: 1
Clara Tauson has already slipped twice and complains to the chair referee about the nature of the square. However, the Danish will have to cope with that, because the weather conditions are perfectly fine. Iga świątek, meanwhile, has problems with the surcharge, hardly finds a first one and returned to 3:30 p.m.
20:10
Świątek – Tauson 1: 1
Tauson defends the first breakball with some massive basic strokes, but then the rebreak is official. The Danish wants too much with the backhand Longline and thunders the felt ball behind the baseline.
20:09
Świątek – Tauson 0: 1
As a retrapsey, Iga świątek feels more comfortable and involved in Clara Tauson in the first real rallies, in which she then immediately wins the upper hand. A strong return to the baseline brings two chances to the immediate rebreak.
20:06
Świątek – Tauson 0: 1
What a start! In the third attempt, świątek finally gets a surcharge into the field, but Tauson lets her powerful forehand fly and makes three break balls clear. At the next point the Danish is on the handle and starts perfectly with a zero break. This is a announcement!
20:05
Świątek – Tauson 0: 0
Świątek starts with a double error and even leaves another follows seconds later. Tauson immediately gets an early 0:30.
20:03
Świątek – Tauson 0: 0
Let’s go! Clara Tauson won the choice of seats and decided on setback. Iga świątek opens the match.
20:01
Second duel
Once the two have already met on the WTA tour. At the Masters in Indian Wells, świątek lost the first set in 2022, but then prevailed confidently. The two face each other for the first time today.
19:56
As made for lawn tennis
It is surprising that Clara Tauson has not won a game on the holy lawn of Wimbledon until this edition. Because with her powerful game, the Danish is actually predestined for good results on grass. She particularly distinguishes her surcharge, which often strikes the opponent unreachable. Only Elena Rybakina has beaten more aces than Tauson in 2025. The Rybakina, after all, Wimbledon’s winner from 2023, had to give up the Danish as well as local hero Heather Watson and Anna Kalinskaya in the course of this tournament.
19:50
Tauson wants to enter new territory
While Iga świątek wants to go to her second Wimbledon quarter-finals, Clara Tauson is in her career in her round of 16 in her career in a Grand Slam. Only at the French Open 2024 had the Danish made it under the last 16. In Wimbledon, on the other hand, the 22-year-old had not even won a match for three attempts. However, the strong run this year fits the general rise of Tausons, which has now knocked on the top 20 after she had won her third WTA title at the beginning of Auckland and later reached the final of the 1000er in Dubai.
19:45
Confidently in the round of 16
Iga świątek has only been in the quarter -finals of Wimbledon in 2023. This year, however, the Polish has apparently rediscovered its strengths on lawns and has been properly played up. At the preparation tournament in Bad Homburg it went to the final and here in London świątek has not burned anything. Only in round two did the five-time major winner have to go over three sets against Caty McNally. The first endurance test in round three against Danielle Collins świątek mastered 6: 2 and 6: 3 in a good hour.
19:40
Does świątek use the favor of the hour?
In the past, Wimbledon was truly not the favorite major of Iga świątek. The Polish already has five Grand Slam titles on the account, but has never got beyond the quarter-finals in London. The chances that it will continue this time stand well for the former number one in the world. Because after Ua Coco Gauff, Jessica Pegula, Petra Kvitova and Elena Rybakina said goodbye, świątek is by far the largest remaining name in the lower half of the tournament tree. And the 24-year-old is also the only one who already has experience with Grand Slam titles.
19:39
Welcome
Hello and welcome to the next game from the Wimbledon Championships 2025! On the court No. 1 The round of 16 between Iga świątek from Poland and the Danish Clara Tauson is on the end of the day.
