Seventh seed Iga Świątek will take on the unseeded Ann Li in the quarter-finals of the Wuhan Open. This is the second time that the two are facing off this season. Li has done well against top players this season; our prediction backs her to prevail.

Ann Li defeated Swiatek back in April when they met on clay in Madrid. Though she won in the third set via a retirement, she will be confident of yet another victory after a strong week. Li has dropped just one set so far, and this was against top seed Aryna Sabalenka.

The American shocked the world number two and a three-time Wuhan champion in the second round. Now up to 24th in the live ranking, Li defeated Janice Tjen in the last round. 

Iga Świątek will be eager to avenge that loss in the Spanish capital and avoid yet another last eight setback. The Pole has lost five of the eight quarter-finals she has played this year.

2026 has been rough for the former world number one despite her compiling one of the best records this term. Swiatek, who has won 41 matches, has struggled in the latter stages of events and has played just one final, which she won in Toronto.

This lack of accolades has led to her almost dropping out of the top 10. Swiatek, who could miss the year-end WTA Finals if she doesn’t emerge champion in Wuhan, is ranked ninth in the world.

The 25-year-old defeated Ashlyn Krueger in straight sets in the last round.
