Iga Swiatek‘s dream clay run continues. After winning back-to-back titles in Madrid and Rome, the world number 1 player came into the French Open with the hopes of clinching yet another title and marking an end to a perfect run on clay. As the tournament progressed, she showed signs of dominance and made her stance clear that she was here for the title.

After her major milestone, she attended the press conference as the journalists were waiting for the champ to address her win. Amidst the bunch of questions, there came a question that certainly Iga Swiatek did not seem to like.

A journalist came ahead and asked Iga a couple of things outside the tennis court where she would want herself to be perfect. “Would you mind sharing a way or two away from the court in which you find yourself wanting to be perfect,” asked the journalist. Replying to this, Swiatek suggested that they were not in therapy so she would not want to answer that question. “We’re not in therapy so, sorry,” said Swiatek in response to the journalist.

Thus, Iga Swiatek, moments after winning her 4th Roland Garros title came into the press conference to shatter her thoughts on multiple things. However, she preferred not to indulge her private life into tennis as she refused to spark her views on her life.

But apart from that, the journey from a narrow defeat to a champion is nothing but a surreal feeling for Iga Swiatek and she pretty much acknowledges it. In another question that followed, she talked about how she felt following her win.
