Iga Swiatek crashed to a 6-2 2-6 6-4 defeat by eighth seed Russian Veronika Kudermetova in the quarter-finals of the Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo on Friday.<\/p>\n

The top seed, playing in her second match since a fourth-round defeat at the U.S. Open that saw her drop to number two in the world rankings, sprayed the errors around in the opening set as Kudermetova grabbed a double break before going 4-0 up.<\/p>\n

Swiatek finally got on board with a hold and looked to mount a comeback but could not prevent world number 19 Kudermetova from taking a set off her for the first time in five meetings.<\/p>\n

Kudermetova surrendered the second set tamely, but the 26-year-old found herself ahead in the decider as Swiatek gifted her an early break with a double fault.<\/p>\n

The Russian held her nerve towards the end of the contest and finished it off with a superb serve.<\/p>\n

Up next for Kudermetova is Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, who reached her first semi-final since her run to the 2021 French Open final with a 6-2 7-5 win over fellow Russian Ekaterina Alexandrova.<\/p>\n

Pavlyuchenkova\u2019s career was derailed last year due to a knee injury that needed surgery, but she battled her way back to peak match fitness on the lower tours before reaching the Roland Garros quarter-finals in June.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think the most important (thing) is to be humble and play whatever you can to get back to the level,\u201d said Pavlyuchenkova.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was just working my way back to this level, trying to get back to the top. Just trying to enjoy, since I\u2019m getting towards the end of my career.\u201d<\/p>\n
