Iga Swiatek not worried ahead of Wimbledon

No worries for Iga Swiatek two days before the start of Wimbledon. The Pole was forced to forfeit before the first grass semi-final of her career in Bad Homburg on Friday. “I’m fine, she reassured at a press conference on Saturday in London. I had a very bad night and barely slept. I had a stomach ache and I don’t know if there was a problem or not. Later in the day I felt good so I’m sure everything will be fine. »

The world No. 1, who has just won her third title at Roland Garros, has never done better than a round of 16 on the London turf. Last year, she was surprised by Alizé Cornet in the third round when she remained on 37 straight victories on the circuit. A small anomaly for the boss of the circuit who has often had trouble finding her marks on the surface but who feels better and better there. His career in Germany and his remarks to the press have everything to worry the competition.

“Last year, I felt a lot of pressure here because I was number 1. Getting used to grass has always been tricky because when you play Roland well you have less prep time but I feel like I’ve done a bit more this time around. It’s the first time I’ve been able to focus on training and learn a lot. I hope I will be able to use all this in the game. She will start her fortnight on Monday against Lin Zhu.
