Iga Swiatek has achieved her 15th win at the Internazionali d'Italia, moving her closer to the record for most wins in the first 17 matches at this event, held by Chris Evert and Gabriela Sabatini with 16 wins each. In her latest match, Swiatek staged a remarkable comeback against Yulia Putintseva, overcoming a 1-4 deficit in the second set to win 6-3, 6-4. This victory marks her 25th consecutive win on clay against opponents ranked outside the top 10, a feat last accomplished by Serena Williams in 2016. Swiatek's win also extends her season record to 32 wins and advances her to the Round of 16 in Rome, where she awaits the winner between Kerber and Sasnovich.
