Top seed Iga Swiatek eased into the pre-quarter-finals of the US Open on Saturday (August 31, 2024), defeating 27th-ranked Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova 6-4, 6-2. Swiatek, the 2022 US Open champion whose five titles this year include a fourth French Open crown, was largely untroubled in the potentially tricky encounter against the former French Open runner-up.
