Iga Swiatek recently appeared on Season 2 of the ‘Tennis Insider Club’ podcast. In the podcast, she discussed her journey, her mindset, and her approach to competition and opened up about how challenging the past few months have been for her. The five-time Grand Slam champion also commented that she was trying to enjoy life a bit more and emphasized the need for balance in one’s life.
Iga Swiatek is the only player representing Poland to win a Grand Slam. She has won 22 singles titles, including the 2023 WTA Finals and ten WTA 1000 titles. In 2024, she became the first Polish tennis player to win an Olympic medal, earning bronze in singles at the Paris Olympics.
I would say before I was only tennis-tennis-tennis… Even like I’m deleting Instagram, Twitter, the notifications on my email. So in the beginning, it was a good way for me to be more focused. But now you just can’t do that anymore because if you’re going to do that for what like 40 weeks per year? That’s not a life anymore.
Iga Swiatek had a 2024 season filled with significant achievements and notable challenges. She began the year triumphantly, winning titles at the Qatar Open, Indian Wells, Madrid Open, Italian Open, and clinching her fourth French Open crown, showcasing her dominance on both clay and hard courts.
