– After the last ball of the winning Roland Garros final, Iga Świątek fell to her knees, but now she has the whole world at her feet. This triumph – taking into account two factors – can be considered something that was virtually inevitable. The amazing balances – 35-2 and 84-10 – speak for themselves. The Pole joined a new elite group, which includes, among others: Roger Federer. She also beat one of Serena Williams’ feats and repeated another – this is how Iga Świątek’s triumph was commented by Sport.pl journalist Agnieszka Niedziałek.

Coach Świątek honestly. He pointed
The Pole has been in excellent shape since the beginning of 2024, and playing on clay proved that it is her favorite surface. This is best evidenced by the results. Her coach, Tomasz Wiktorowski, summed up the season so far in an interview for “Rzeczpospolita”.
– Practically from the beginning of my performances on this real clay, not counting the tournament in Stuttgart, after every training and after every warm-up I said that I was impressed with how Iga plays and how she hits the ball, because that’s what I assess: is it clean? , deeply, solidly, energetically – he emphasized.
The coach also returned to the most difficult moment of the tournament. In – as he himself admitted – “a specific meeting” with Naomi Osaka, it seemed that Świątek was already lying on the boards, but she managed to get up. – This time Iga had to switch on the highest speed right from the beginning. We knew this match could be like that. The second set was for me the only moment below what Iga presented – both later and earlier. I’m glad that she was able to build herself up in the third game, coming back from the match ball, said Wiktorowski.
Saturday’s win was Świątek’s fifth Grand Slam victory in her career. Thus, she managed to equal Maria Sharapova’s career result. The Polish woman is only 23 years old, but she has already achieved many amazing results and achievements. It faces many challenges in 2024. Soon there will be another Grand Slam tournament – Wimbledon, and then the quadrennial event – the Olympic Games, which will be held… in Paris.
