Iga Swiatek describes herself as ruthless ahead of Madison Keys showdown with the star playing just six hours of tennis at Australian Open so far
How much could you earn in just six hours of work?
Iga Swiatek has racked up a stunning cheque after reaching the Australian Open semi-finals in speedy fashion.
There is not much going wrong for the 23-year-old currently, a last-four appearance in Melbourne coupled with her doping allegation being settled, the Pole is enjoying the best of tennis lately.
Despite five Grand Slams, the world No.2 has never won the Australian Open title but after racing to victory inside an hour and half against Emma Navarro, she is displaying scintillating form.
Dropping just 14 games in five matches, bagelling her opponents at least three times and playing just six hours on court, the Polish superstar is on a mission to win her first Slam Down Under.
It was only days ago, Swiatek thrashed British tennis star Emma Raducanu 6-1, 6-0 in a victory that reminded the tennis world, the level between two players who broke through at similar times.
“On the tennis court, I need to be ruthless, although this word is often understood by people as something negative,” she said after her win over Navarro.
The six hours on court the 2024 French Open champion has had is vastly different to her fellow semi-finalist Ben Shelton, who has spent 15 hours playing en route to the last four.
