Swiatek and Martic are on the Day 4 Schedule at The Championships, Wimbledon 2024 on Thursday July 4, 2024. Lets breakdown the career, past stats and recent form of these players and predict who will get the victory.
Who Will Win In This Head-To-Head?
Iga Swiatek, ranked number 1 in Poland, will be facing Petra Martic, ranked number 85 in Croatia, in their upcoming match. Swiatek has a head-to-head advantage of 3-0 against Martic, winning all three of their previous meetings in straight sets, including their clash in the Wimbledon third round last year.
Swiatek has an impressive record in second-round matches at Grand Slam events, winning her last 17 encounters. She has also been in exceptional form this year, with 44 wins and only 4 losses, making her the top-ranked player in terms of match-wins on the tour.
On the other hand, Martic is participating in her 12th Wimbledon main draw and has reached the Round of 16 three times in her career (in 2017, 2019, and 2022). Her best result in a Grand Slam tournament was reaching the quarterfinals at Roland Garros in 2019. Martic has 8 wins against Top 10 players in her career, but she has yet to secure a victory against a reigning World No.1 player, with a record of 0-5.
Regardless of the outcome of her matches in Wimbledon, Swiatek is set to remain at the top position in the PIF WTA Rankings for the weeks of July 1 and July 8. This is her tenth time being the top seed in a major tournament.
If Swiatek manages to win Wimbledon, she will become the youngest player since Serena
Williams in 2002 to win both Roland Garros and Wimbledon in the same season. In addition, her first-round victory over Sofia Kenin made her the second active player, along with Venus Williams, to secure multiple 20-match win streaks at the WTA Tour level.
In terms of historical achievements, Swiatek is the third player, after Justine Henin and Venus Williams, to achieve multiple 20-match win streaks before the age of 24. Other legendary players who have accomplished this feat include Goolagong, C. Evert, Navratilova, Graf, Seles, V. Williams, and S. Williams.
As for Swiatek’s tournament history, she is making her fifth appearance at Wimbledon, with her best result being a quarterfinal finish in 2023 where she lost to Svitolina. This will be her 22nd Grand Slam event, and she already has five Grand Slam singles titles to her name, including four consecutive victories at Roland Garros (2020, 2022-2024) and one US Open title in 2022.
Martic, on the other hand, is participating in her 12th Wimbledon main draw and has reached the Round of 16 three times in her career.
