Loud breakup in Iga Świątek’s team. The star points: let’s be honest

Iga is number one in the world, but she still needs to develop her game on grass and hard courts. And let’s be honest, that hasn’t happened in the last year or two. She’s looking for something new, a fresh perspective, because at this level, every detail matters,” Schett said.

So I’m not surprised that he’s looking for a coach from outside Poland,” added the Austrian tennis player, who ended her professional career in 2005.

Strong words! “I was disappointed with Iga Świątek”

“I was really disappointed with her performance at Wimbledon and the US Open, where she played one-dimensionally and couldn’t adjust her tactics. She was committed but helpless. There is definitely room for improvement in her game,” she concluded.

Let us recall that in the statement in which Świątek thanked Wiktorowski for his cooperation, the Polish tennis player also informed that she is starting a search for a new coach. “Due to this important change for me, I am giving myself the next few weeks to start working with a new coach. The first talks with coaches from abroad are already underway, because I feel that I am ready for the next step in my career. I will let you know when I make a decision,” wrote the leader of the WTA ranking.

Who is Iga Świątek’s new coach? A specific name is mentioned

According to Tomasz Tomaszewski, tennis commentator at Polsat Sport, the player from Raszyn should choose Brad Gilbert, former coach of Coco Gauff.

For me, he is the best coach in the world. If he meets the best tennis player in the world, he should play. He is probably a few levels above Tomek (Wiktorowski – editor’s note), because he was a top tennis player,” Tomaszewski argued.
