After winning 37 games in a row including six tournaments gleaned in a row including Roland-Garros, Iga Swiatek suffered a short setback at Wimbledon against Alizé Cornet then more recently, at home, in Warsaw, against Caroline Garcia.
The number one seed in the WTA 1000 in Toronto, the Polish woman appeared at a press conference during the media day with the feeling of accomplishment after a simply exceptional half of the season.
“I know there are a lot of players who have done better than me, but I’m pretty proud of what I achieved in the first part of the season. I hope it gives me more freedom when it comes to playing because now I have nothing to prove. On the other hand, it can also put pressure on me, so I try not to think about what happened and prepare for what is to come. »
