The 'Iga Swiatek Bakery' was open for business again at the Australian Open, dishing out bagels and breadsticks in a 6-0 6-1 third-round win over Cristina Bucsa, but the world number one wants those chants shut down for good.

"I heard it when someone screamed about the 'bakery', but I don't want to hear stuff like that during the match," she had said after the win.

"It's sometimes hard to deal with that when all eyes are on you and you have to still be kind of patient and down to earth, really work hard to achieve that," Swiatek said. Swiatek won two majors last year and in the fourth round she is up against another Grand Slam champion, 22nd seed Elena Rybakina, who conquered the grasscourts at Wimbledon and does not care that she is facing the top seed this early.

In the men's draw, Swiatek's compatriot Hubert Hurkacz will face American Sebastian Korda who dumped 2021 and 2022 runner-up Daniil Medvedev out in straight sets.
