The German woman's unusual behavior after her loss to Iga Świątek. Here's what she did.
Iga Świątek had defeated Eva Lys twice before. In Stuttgart, she needed 64 minutes to win 6-1, 6-1, and at this year's Australian Open, she needed five minutes less (6-0, 6-1). In the third round of the tournament in Montreal, the match lasted "a whopping" 74 minutes.
The Polish tennis player was once again ruthless against the 69th-ranked German. She defeated her 6-2, 6-2, and reached the fourth round of the WTA 1000 tournament. Lys accepted the lost points with a smile. When she won the third game of the match, she happily showed her box that she had achieved her best result against Świątek so far.
The German made Iga Świątek laugh after her defeat. Here's what she didAs the match ended, she didn't show any sporting anger either. She went to the net to shake the Polish player's hand and then said something that made Iga laugh. "It's always fun here. I'm glad I had the chance to play here again; it was a solid match. I think it was a different match than our last one. I'm focusing on myself; I know what my plan is. Eva played well down the line, she played fast balls, it wasn't easy, but I got the job done," the Pole said a moment later on the court.
In the fourth round, our tennis player will face Dane Clara Tauson.
