Iga Sviontek is already in Brisbane, Australia, where she took part in the so-called media day shortly before the start of the United Cup. Polka made a clear statement about the upcoming season.
In the pre-season tournament of the World Tennis League, Iga Sviontek played four matches, three of which were victorious for her. The first racket of the WTA rating had a space season, which, unfortunately, did not end with success in the WTA Finals, but there is nothing to complain about. Experts and journalists wondered how the polka would fit into the upcoming season, because the previous one was so excellent. The star answered this question.
Iga Sviontek is going to start from scratch
The 21-year-old champion has made it clear that she is not going to stop there and wants to put aside what she achieved last season. Victories at Roland Garros and the US Open, as well as leadership in the WTA world rankings, are the best thing that happened to the Rashinian. The Polka practiced for a long time so as not to fall out of practice before the new season. This is also the approach he wants to start the upcoming campaign with.
“I will try to forget about everything that happened last year and focus on the future. I can gain a lot of confidence thinking about how I played in all those tournaments last season, but I don’t want to stay too long because I want to move on and focus on my next goals, try to get better as a tennis player. Iga Świątek is quoted by the portal puntodebreak.com.
Iga Sviontek imitated her idol
Polka noted that she was satisfied with what she had achieved. During the press conference, the Polish woman also returned to the past and spoke about her Australian idol Ashleigh Barty.
– I am very proud of myself. I feel great satisfaction because I have worked all my life to get to this point. When Ash (Barty - ed.) retired, I had mixed feelings, because she still played the best tennis. I can’t wait to see her this week and tell her straight up that she really inspired me to work harder and her playing style made me realize I have room to grow.”
