Despite Struggles, WTA Legend Can’t Get Enough of Iga Swiatek’s Prowess as She Dissects Key Traits That Make Her Unstoppable
“I can’t wait to compete soon,” is how Iga Swiatek ended her official statement while announcing the addition of Wim Fissette to her team. The renowned coach has previously mentored players like Naomi Osaka, Kim Clijsters, and Simona Halep. Despite dominating the clay courts with a 4th-time victory at Roland Garros, Swiatek has struggled on hard courts where her rival Aryna Sabalenka never backs down from taking the lead. Not only did her absence create an air of concern but snatched the world no.1 spot from her. Amid the Polish WTA star’s preparation for a comeback, Ana Ivanovic had a few words to say about her.
Former Roland Garros champion Ana Ivanovic has long admired Iga Swiatek’s ability to dominate on the court, especially in Paris. Amid all the chaos surrounding her image, Ivanovic praised her ability to be strong even during tough moments. “She’s in a really good mood. Above all, she’s mentally fully present in every match. That’s what sets her apart from the other players at the moment.” Ivanovic said.
She also highlighted how Swiatek’s game has become more aggressive, with her tactical awareness making it difficult for opponents to find answers. “Tactically, she’s playing more and more cleverly,” Ivanovic added, stating how well Swiatek reads both her opponents and the overall game flow.
