Iga Swiatek was booed by the crowd before being unceremoniously dumped out of Wimbledon after suffering a shock third-round defeat to world No 35 Yulia Putintseva. Despite being a five-time grand slam champion, grass remains Swiatek’s greatest nemesis. She has never progressed beyond the quarter-finals at the All England Club. Swiatek's fortunes on grass could hardly be more different to her Kazach opponent, Putintseva, who now has an eight-match run of her own on the surface, including a title at Birmingham before arriving in London.
