With women’s tennis on the verge of an epic showdown between its top two players with the Australian Open title on the line, Keys, the 29-year-old American, crashed the party. She stormed back against Iga Swiatek to win their semifinal 5-7, 6-1, 7-6 (10-8)

The Polish player was sensationally overtaken by the 29-year-old American, who won the third-set supertiebreak with a score of 5-7 6-1 7-6 (8), reaching the second Slam final of her career eight years after the one at the 2017 US Open, lost to Sloane Stephens.

Iga Swiaktek gave a hilariously cold answer to a reporter's question after losing to Madison Keys in the 2025 Australian Open Semifinals.
