Iga Swiatek Faces Camila Osorio in China Open Clash as World No. 1 Looks to Extend Dominance
When the draw for the China Open 2025 served up a third-round clash between World No. 1 Iga Swiatek and Colombian fighter Camila Osorio, fans instantly knew this was going to be one to watch. On paper, the odds are stacked heavily in favor of Swiatek, but tennis loves its surprises, and Osorio has shown she’s not afraid to scrap for every single point.
Swiatek and Osorio have crossed paths just once before, back at the 2023 Australian Open, where the Pole eased through with a 6-2, 6-3 victory. Since then, Swiatek’s dominance has only grown. Her ability to dictate rallies, control the tempo, and crush opponents with relentless accuracy makes her the clear favorite. And in Beijing, she has looked as sharp as ever—barely dropping games in her opening rounds and oozing the confidence of a reigning World No. 1.
