MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Magda Linette was not expecting to be the last Pole standing at the Australian Open but she is not feeling any extra pressure to keep the Polish flag flying in Melbourne after the exits of world number one Iga Swiatek and men's 10th seed Hubert Hurkacz.
World number 45 Linette was left speechless after advancing to her first Grand Slam quarter-final on Monday with a 7-6(3) 6-4 upset of fourth seed Caroline Garcia on Rod Laver Arena.
