Terrific. _insider World No.1 Iga Swiatek takes her streak to 30 wins, with a 60 62 win over Alison Riske in the second round. Shriver, a former doubles No. 1 and current Tennis Channel analyst, reckons Swiatek is virtually unbeatable at the moment. She said that the Pole has looked vulnerable in spurts but has had enough in the tank to see off her opponents. “Obviously she had some battles during that streak, the Samsonova (semi-final) in Stuttgart, the first set against Andreescu (in Rome)," Shriver. "There have been moments where she hasn't been at her best, but her record in second sets or her record in even tight first sets has been tremendous." Shriver added that Swiatek's level of dominance is akin to Serena Williams' when the American was in her prime. “Who has been this dominant? You could say Ashleigh Barty has some of these qualities, but I would say to win this many tournaments in a row, beating virtually all of your fellow top-10ers and beating a few of them a couple of times, it's really Serena-like," Shriver said. Serena Williams won 34 consecutive matches in 2013, the second most by any WTA player this century, after her sister Venus, who won 35 on the trot in 2000.
