Artur Gac, Interia: Maciej, The amazing transformation took place with Iga in the match with Rybakina. After what we saw in the first set, when the tons of events on the court were broadcast by Elena Rybakina, there was a real revolution in Igi’s game. What was her playing in the first set and what, from your point of view, was a fundamental change?
Maciej Ryszczuk: – Elena, as always, entered the match with Iga very much. The balls she sent was “deep”, very quickly, even with a fairly low goat for flour. Added to this was a huge service, so Iga was constantly in a short time. What we asked her was to go back, i.e. give herself more space and time to enter the ball, to make a rotation and hit her spin, which she later did fantastically. For her, for her, Chapeau bass.
And what was what we saw in the first set when she did not reach balls many times? It seemed that they were absolutely within its reach, with the normal game of Igi to easily receive and strongly respond to the opponent, and this was so clearly missing?
– I think it is also a matter of perception. When a man is under pressure all the time and stress is a bit greater, it seems to him that he does not keep up with balls, and in fact the problem comes from the fact that he does not give himself a space. And then he gets the wrong impression that whatever he did, he won’t make it to the ball anyway. That is why it gives up, this is how our body works in such a spiral of events.
Your coaching before the second set and your hints, as the events on the court showed, turned out to be crucial. What exactly did you convey to Iga?
– We talked to coach Wim, who also repeated that Iga would go back. We talked to her during the match, Wim also repeated it by Iga, but I saw that Iga did not hear it, because there was a very hustle and bustle at the stadium. In addition, she did not catch it because she was a bit nerves, so at some point I got up and started screaming at her to listen to it. I said in a very loud voice that he had to retreat on the site. Then she turned to us and showed that Okay, i.e. she acknowledged. I think that this change simply gave her a lot of space on the return, and thus also built her certainty of the game.
Did this match through how he went, his twists and the fact that Iga was building in it and the games returned greatly, can it be the most important win of many last months?
– It’s hard for me to answer this question. We certainly have to be on guard and we cannot fall into euphoria, because we have another match soon. And very often after such an euphoric duel there is a decline, which is why we try to walk hard on the ground. We are happy, we have already talked to Iga after the match and we go further. I hope that this match will affect her mega, mega positively. Because for us certainly yes.
At some point I got up and started shouting to her to listen to it. I said in a very loud voice that he had to retreat on the site. Then she turned to us and showed that Okay, i.e. she acknowledged. I think that this change simply gave her a lot of space on the return

How is it possible that such a professional like you, who also knows a little nutrition, funds such a picture of the day that at the time of the conversation we have 17:20, and you are about coffee and Croissant?
– (smile) The story begins with the fact that the fans celebrated PSG victory until the morning and it was very, very loud under our hotel. As a result, I fell asleep only around 4-5 in the morning, which caused me not to get up for breakfast. I wanted to extend my dream as long as possible to be relatively fresh to warm up with Iga and help her properly. And then it all went so much that it was difficult to cut when you can eat something. Paolini was already finishing the match, so not, so I didn’t want to eat quickly. So that the protein shake, coffee and Croissant came on.
