Iga Swiatek registered her 12th consecutive Billie Jean King Cup after beating Gabriela Lee 6-2 6-0 to seal Poland's victory over Romania and send her country into next year's qualifiers.

On Friday, the six-time Grand Slam champion crushed Elyse Tse 6-0 6-1 in Poland's opening win over New Zealand in Group B in Gorzow.

By beating New Zealand, the Polish side put themselves in a strong position to win Group B and seal a 2026 Billie Jean King Cup qualifiers spot. And on Sunday, it started well for the host nation after Linda Klimovicova defeated Elena Ruxandra Bertea 6-2 6-1.

Next on the court was Swiatek, whose win would have secured Poland's win over Romania. And while the world No. 2 lost her serve twice in the first set, she still easily took the opener after breaking Lee four times. In the second set, the former world No. 1 played even better and completed her win with a bagel.
