Iga Swiatek said she was at a loss to describe the way in which her US Open title defence was left in ruins on Sunday in a last-16 defeat to Latvia’s Jelena Ostapenko. The Pole lost for the fourth time in as many meetings with the talented but inconsistent Ostapenko, who roared back to clinch a 3-6, 6-3, 6-1 victory after dominating the final two sets. “She plays well against me. I mean, I don’t have any comparison because she always did that,” said Swiatek.
