The world of sports celebrates Iga Świątek’s birthday. “Phenomenal”
A funny video starring Iga Świątek was posted on the Australian Open Twitter profile. During the Grand Slam tournament in Melbourne, the Pole was asked what kind of coffee she would order.
Flat white (milk coffee) with oat milk and toasted banana bread when my coaches aren’t looking,” she announced, amusing the fans gathered in the stands. The second part of the video includes a clip from the cafe. Świątek got what she had mentioned. “Oh, thank you,” she told the waiter in the archive video. She then told the fans: “You didn’t see that, I’m on a diet.”
A beautiful birthday post appeared on The Tennis Letter profile. “Happy birthday to Iga Świątek. “A phenomenal ambassador for women’s tennis. An important voice for the world of sports. One of the most dominant number ones we’ve seen in years,” we read.
The tweet further listed Iga’s successes: “105 weeks as the leader of the WTA ranking (ninth result in history), 21 tournament wins, including four Grand Slams and ten WTA 1000 tournaments, victory in the WTA Finals 2023 and the first Polish player to win a Grand Slam tournament in singles.”
If Iga’s birthday cake isn’t shaped like a bagel, I’d like to have a word with the baker,” it concluded (a bagel in tennis jargon is a set won to zero — ed.).
