    By IANS News May 14, 2025 • 11:38 AM View: 633
    Ranked World No: Peyton Stearns made history at the Italian Open with her latest nail-biting victory over No. 16 seed Elina Svitolina in a thrilling quarterfinal match as she became the first player in the Open Era to win three consecutive WTA main-draw matches in third-set tiebreaks.

    After seeing a 6-2, 4-2 lead slip through her fingers, unseeded American Stearns rallied from a double-break down in the third set to outlast No. 16 seed Elina Svitolina of Ukraine 6-2, 4-6, 7-6(4) in two hours and 38 minutes.

    In her last two rounds, Stearns toppled Grand Slam champions Madison Keys and Naomi Osaka in third-set tiebreaks, setting up her history-making streak. Her upset of World No.6 Keys was her career-best win by opponent ranking.
