Elena marches on to semi-final date

The 2022 champion produced a fine display of explosive hitting, coupled with a rock-solid serve, to end Svitolina's hopes of a maiden grand slam triumph.

Rybakina struck 28 winners during a one-sided 61-minute battle with Svitolina, who was out-of-sorts two days on from an emotional victory over Wang Xinyu, which occurred hours after a Russian missile struck a children's hospital in Kyiv.

Fourth seed Rybakina wrapped up victory with a seventh ace to march into the semi-finals.

"I'm really pleased with the way I played today," Rybakina said. "It is always tough to play against Elina, she is a great player and fighter. So, no matter the score, it was not as easy as it might have looked.

"Of course I have such amazing memories from 2022 and I am just enjoying every time I step on the court.
