In Pictures: Iga Swiatek puts WTA Finals exit behind her with Riyadh sightseeing tour, coach Wim Fissette & psychologist Daria join her for company

Polish tennis player Iga Swiatek was spotted spending time with her team members in Riyadh. This comes just a few days after the 23-year-old’s group stage exit from the 2024 WTA Finals.

Swiatek entered the tournament as the defending champion and also registered two victories against Barbora Krejcikova and Daria Kasatkina in the group stage. However, a loss to Coco Gauff eventually lowered her chances of making it to the competition’s semifinals.
Swiatek needed Gauff to win her clash against Krejcikova after she defeated Kasatkina on Thursday (Nov 7). However, the American player was denied a single set by the 28-year-old Czech player during the match, leading to the World No.2’s exit from the season-ending competition.

Following this exit, Swiatek was seen in a relaxed mood in Riyadh as she looked to cool off a bit after a jam-packed tennis season. She was accompanied by her coach, Wim Fissette, and performance psychologist, Daria Abramowicz. The Polish player took to her Instagram stories to share a few glimpses of her time in Riyadh.
