Iga Swiatek won on her debut at the Wuhan Open, dismissing Marie Bouzkova in straight sets for the loss of only two games. Swiatek completed a dominant win in 79 minutes. Swiatek led 4-0 in the first set, and although Bouzkova recovered one of the breaks back, she was broken immediately after to hand Swiatek a 5-1 cushion. The Pole held in her next game to clinch the set 6-1.

Swiatek won the second set with the same score, breaking Bouzkova’s serve three times. Swiatek finished the match with 3 aces and 2 double faults. She landed 74% of first serves in play and won 74% of first serve points (25/34). Swiatek won 33% of second serve points (4/12) and saved one of two break points in the match. Swiatek has now 7 of her past 8 matches this swing, with her only defeat coming against Emma Navarro in Beijing.

Belinda Bencic kicked off the tournament with a straight sets win over her good friend Donna Vekic. Bencic dropped only four games in the match, and won with two identical sets 6-2, 6-2 in an hour and 14 minutes. In the victory, Bencic hit 4 aces and 2 double faults. The Swiss landed 68% of first serves in play and won 74% of first serve points (25/34). Bencic won 56% of second serve points (9/16) and saved two of three break points.

Bencic received a walkover in her second round. She was scheduled to play Elise Mertens, but the Belgian withdrew from the tournament. Bencic advanced to the fourth round in Wuhan for the first time. She had lost in the second round stage twice in this tournament. Bencic has won three of four matches this swing.

Iga Swiatek vs Belinda Bencic Head-To-Head

Swiatek and Bencic have met five times. Their most recent match was at the 2025 Wimbledon Championships, where Swiatek defeated Bencic in straight sets to reach the final. Overall, Swiatek leads Bencic 4-1 in the head-to-head. Bencic’s only win over the Pole was at the 2021 US Open.

Iga Swiatek vs Belinda Bencic Prediction

As dominant as Swiatek looked, Bencic still has a better chance of beating her than at Wimbledon. We’ve seen top names fall this swing and Swiatek was among them in Beijing in one of the most shocking scorelines of the WTA season. Maybe she has her eyes set on the WTA Finals, so if in that case there is any lapse in focus, Bencic may as well stand to benefit here.
