In Women’s doubles, Krawczyk and partner Danielle Collins have a matchup in the Round of 8 against Erin Routliffe and Alicja Rosolska. A start time has yet to be announced.
Krawczyk is fresh off of a magical run last summer, in which she racked up three Grand Slam titles in a single year, all coming in mixed doubles play. In June 2021, she earned the first Grand Slam title of her career at the French Open with partner Joe Salisbury. She won again weeks later at Wimbledon alongside Skupski in July, then captured a US Open title with Salisbury in September.
Krawczyk, a 2016 Sun Devil graduate, was the author of a terrific career in Tempe. She compiled a 97-43 record in singles action, including a run of 28-9 in 2013-14 and was also 75-31 in doubles and 20-5 in 2014-15.
