Iga Swiatek was not going to give up so easily. After suffering a 0-6 deficit in the first set against a Madison Keys who was not missing a shot, the Polish player turned the game around in time, fueled by the wounded pride of being the current champion to advance to the semifinals of the Mutua Madrid Open. Swiatek clinched the match 0-6, 6-3, 6-2, in an hour and 45 minutes displaying great tennis after a slow start. The title defender aims to retain her title and secure her first trophy of the year. She is now in the semifinals awaiting either Mirra Andreeva or Coco Gauff.
