Iga Swiatek: 2022 Rome Final Win Interview

[@postive-vibes]

I like how she acknowledges the team around her. I think her Coach Tomasz Wiktorowski has been a significant factor in her progression to dominance this year. Iga is humble, honest and thoughtful. A very nice interview.

[@BornInMetroBF3onPS3]

Very true. There was a one moment at semi-final where Iga's posture was like a copy of Agnieszka Radwanska posture when she was hitting "soft" ball. They both did look exactly the same. Obviously Iga has completely different style than Agnieszka: she is stronger and faster, but still - I believe that Wiktorowski gave Iga some taste of those incredibly "soft" balls played by Agnieszka, all those cuts... When I heard that he is taking charge I was like: "Well there is a hope for Top 5, maybe even Top 3". Would never expect that Iga in few months will become a tennis superstar, breaking or reaching to so many records. I hope she will never stop winning:):P

[@MultiY4]

Yeah, you can actually see changes in her game depending on who she is playing. She was able to deal with Jabeur's dropshots in the final, something very few players have been able to do.

1GA is radiantly beautiful in and off court with or without make up! She is now the best ambassador of WTA taking it again to new heights. Was not into women's tennis until she won RG 2020 all in straight sets! She is very articulate speaking a second language and her constant reading books in english paid dividends. Congrats again 1GA for exceeding all our expectations! More power to you and your team! Let's go Roland Garros! Time to shine again!

[@pawelmod3292]

There is plenty WTA players nice to watch the days. Swiatek, Ons, Sakari, Osaka, Radukanu… Some people say that WTA could be better to watch because ATP these days has a lot of powerful baseliners only… After Roger has left, not too much finesse there… Regarding a language: I admire Iga. English is my second language and I’m using it (trying to use it) on daily basis. But after sport, when you I’m tired, when my my blood sugar level is low, it is quite difficult to speak and make a proper public speeches. Still, she manages that better and better.

1ga! Have only been a causal fan over the years, but have had the pleasure to watch some of the greats. Navratilova, Evert, Seles, Graf, Hingis, Williams sisters. Last year told myself, watch some tennis, haven't watched in a while. Well I had to relearn everyone, but quickly thought Iga is one to watch. She is so good on court and then just seems to be just a great human being when the match is over. Was I ever proved right. Iga is doing things right now that I'm not sure I even saw the greats do. She is just dominating and incredible to watch now and truly deserves the #1 ranking! Iga best wishes to you! Such an awesome talent! Jazda Iga! I think we all have a new inspiration!

Iga Swiatek is successful, because works very hard for it and isn't giving up. Inside the court she ultimate fighter and absolute beast, but outside the court she is one of the nicest and most friendly tennis players on the tour. She doesn't let anything to break her momentum, not even bad calls by umpires. She so many times this season have shown to us, the importance of hard work and determination. Iga Swiatek is the true world #1 in women's singles and she has proved that many times now. I hope that she can win French Open too and tie up with Venus Williams on 35 wins in a row.

We need not be tennis fans to appreciate the amazing skill set and good sportsmanship which she possesses. Such a relief in a sports world so full of entitlement, and so limited in true role models, to have someone like Iga representing youth and what is good in the world. I am certain her psychologist plays a large role in keeping her down-to-Earth and focused on her own mental health & fitness.

Since the begging of her career she’s been saying how staying focus throughout the match is important to her because she used to struggle with it a lot. Also her ticks are known as an ADHD thing. Seriously, I see a lot of traits in her. Part of adhd is also hyper focus, Iga usually says she’s ‘in the zone’ and we all know that’s she’s the beast when in that state of mind 😎

[@vojtasjedyny]

@@Ana-wm9pi If she works with psychologist, she should be able to focus off-the-court too, so music won't be a problem. In other words - everyone could be distracted by it. Anyway there are many reasons why someone has tics. Many players are "in the zone". My point is that without professional close examination and longer observation any conclusions like "she has ADHD" are pure speculation. 😎

When Graf was winning 66 in a row Monica 36 in a row Martina 37 in a row Venus 35 in a row Serena 34 in a row Henin 32 in a row, I knew that'd it'd take a Mount Everest effort to beat them reason I say that is because with this generation they can wake up 10 minutes early and it'll tick them off and they lose that match later on 6/0 6/2. I just hope that Iga takes this by the horns and becomes the next great number 1. Ash was a really really good player but no one in a while has taken the game like Serena meaning every time, she's on court she's expected to win the event.
