Swiatek Roared Back — Then Svitolina Silenced Rome Again
Rome has long felt like a city built for Iga Swiatek’s tennis. The movement, the heavy clay, the grinding rallies and the suffocating baseline control have all combined to turn the Foro Italico into one of her personal strongholds. On Thursday night, however, Elina Svitolina…
