Here's What Iga Swiatek Said In Post-Match On-Court Interview
"In the zone. Everything worked well, I served better than in the previous rounds and that gave me even more confidence to play my game. I'm going to approach this match like any other and try not to think about what's at stake. Coco loves playing on dirt, especially here, but I'm just going to try to focus on myself and my game."
