Iga Swiatek's next match: Opponent, venue, live streaming, TV channel and schedule | Wimbledon 2022, Round 2
Iga Swiatek will continue her Wimbledon campaign against Lesley Pattinama Kerkhove in the second round on Thursday, June 30.
The World No. 1 kicked off her quest for a maiden title at the All England Club with a 6-0, 6-3 win over Jana Fett in the first round on Tuesday. Despite the straightforward scoreline, Swiatek was far from her best, but it was enough to continue her winning streak. With the win, she extended her unbeaten run to 36 matches, the longest such streak this century.

Swiatek's dominance has been quite extraordinary, further amplified by other players' inability to perform at a consistent level. Another win would see her tying Martina Hingis' run of 37 consecutive victories in 1997.
Where is Iga Swiatek playing?
Swiatek is currently competing at Wimbledon, the season's third Grand Slam. Considered the most prestigious tennis event, winning it is seen as the ultimate prize by many players. Her best result in the tournament has been a fourth-round appearance in 2021.
Who is Iga Swiatek playing against?
Lesley Pattinama Kerkhove fell in the final round of qualifying, but got a second lease of life. Following Danka Kovinic's withdrawal, she got into the main draw as a lucky loser and faced British wildcard Sonay Kartal in the first round.
After much back and forth, Kerkhove claimed the opening set over her opponent. Kartal, who was making her Grand Slam debut, displayed her potential by winning the second set. But the youngster's inexperience on the big stage finally caught up with her, as she was unable to sustain the momentum.
The deciding set was quite one-sided, with Kerkhove winning the match 6-4, 3-6, 6-1. The Dutch player has made the most of her second chance and will be looking to put up a fight against Swiatek as well.
