After 20 minutes on the clay courts of Madrid, Iga Świątek threw her racket down on to her bag in frustration. She was experiencing something that she has inflicted on numerous opponents throughout her tennis career: the fear of humiliation.

Iga Swiatek is known for her dominance on clay courts, but Wednesday's quarterfinal match against Madison Keys at the Madrid Open got off to an inauspicious start for the Queen of Clay. Keys handed Swiatek her first bagel on a clay court since 2019.

Madison Keys admits facing Iga Swiatek on clay is a different type of challenge for her because it's the Pole's dominant surface and figuring out a way to beat the world No. 2 there is way harder than on faster surfaces.
