A ＭＡＲＡＴＨＯＮ rally with a stunning finish 😮 @iga_swiatek | #MiamiOpen
Iga Swiatek made history as only the fourth woman to win the Sunshine Double in a terrific March.
She has now also been honoured for producing the shot of the month
for March in her Round of 32 match against Madison Brengle at the Miami
Open. Coming at the end of a 26-shot rally, Swiatek anticipated Brengle’s
sliced drop shot delivering a perfectly placed backhand crosscourt
winner that gave her opponent no chance.
Swiatek breezed past Brengle 6-0, 6-3, going on to win the tournament and become the youngest woman to claim the Sunshine Double. She needed to beat Brengle to be assured of ascending to the WTA
World No 1 ranking and did just that, being confirmed as the new top
player on 4 April 2022.
Swiatek started the 2022 season ranked ninth but the retirement of
Ashleigh Barty and her incredible run of form has propelled her to the
very top of the women’s game.

- Players need to STOP TRYING TO JUSTIFY THEIR INCLUSION! They are not ambassadors for women in Saudi Arabia, they are not politicians, and they will never make a difference for females in that 'culture'. This little tennis "tournament" changes nothing. Players were lured by the money, opted to participate, and should just keep their predictable excuses and Women's Freedom Fairy Tales to themselves. Period. Like most things in Life -- one cannot make an argument relating to the Saudi Regime and, at the same time, triple your bank account with their "gifts".
