Iga Swiatek is still just 21 and yet she already is guaranteed a spot on the International Tennis Hall of Fame ballot five years after she retires. That's because Swiatek is quickly establishing herself as a force in women's tennis and a player no one wants to face. She won her third Grand Slam title at the U.S. Open on Saturday by beating Ons Jabeur 6-2, 7-6 (5). That gave Swiatek 10 consecutive triumphs in finals, every one in straight sets. If Swiatek keeps playing and performing like this, if she manages to remain healthy and grounded, she has the skills and the mindset to keep adding to her career totals.
