The four-time Grand Slam champion fired off 20 winners and four aces to set up a second-round meeting with Australian Daria Saville. Peterson, who only produced two winners across the match, never regained her composure and Swiatek pumped her first after closing out the match with a scorching backhand down the line. "I really wanted to play solid and start (the) tournament with everything that I focused on (in practice),” she said in on-court remarks. "I just feel happy that with all the pressure and expectations I can just have fun on court."
