NEW YORK (AP) — Iga Swiatek had an easy start to her quest to win the U.S. Open and Wimbledon in the same year, needing just an hour to beat Emiliana Arango 6-1, 6-2 on Tuesday. The No. 2-seeded Swiatek won the point on 23 of 26 first serves and had a 26-5 advantage in winners in the opening match of the day on Arthur Ashe Stadium. Swiatek went nearly a week between matches after losing in themixed doubles championship matchwith Casper Ruud last Wednesday night. But her rhythm came right back in a dominant start to the tournament. "For sure it was a solid match and I'm happy that I wasn't trying to overpower, but I was just solid," Swiatek said. A second title for the 2022 champion at Flushing Meadows would make her the first woman to win Wimbledon and the U.S. Open in the same year since Serena Williams in 2012. Swiatek also has a chance to regain the No. 1 ranking if she wins the title and Aryna Sabalenka loses before the quarterfinals. ___ More AP tennis:https://apnews.com/hub/tennis
