'Dirty tactics. Can't stand her': Iga Swiatek lands into fresh controversy after ‘cheating’ accusations

Hindustan Times  

A day after being labelled "cheat" for hitting a return off Ema Navarro despite the ball bouncing twice in the Australia Open quarterfinal, Iga Swiatek once again found herself in the middle of criticism during her semi-final match against Madison Keys. Winner Madison Keys of the US and Poland's Iga Swiatek shake hands at the net following their women's singles semi-final match on day twelve of the Australian Open tennis tournament in Melbourne on January 24, 2025. The 19th seed battled through a thrilling semi-final on a final-set tiebreak against the world number two 5-7, 6-1, 7-6 after Sabalenka swept aside Paula Badosa in straight sets. Five-time Grand Slam champion Swiatek had not dropped her serve since the first round but was broken eight times by Keys, who saved a match point on her way to edging a titanic battle.
