Mats Wilander has been really impressed by what Swiatek was able to do in the past year and he can certainly see it continuing.
In a talk with Eurosport, the analysts spoke about Swiatek and Alcaraz as he was asked to compare the years they had. Both had tremendous years climbing to number one and winning a grand slam with Swiatek winning two of them.
Due to that and due to the fact that she won 30+ matches in a row, Wilander picked Swiatek as the player who had the better year overall:
"I think that Iga Swiatek with 37 wins in a row on two different continents, on two different surfaces, I think, yeah, I think you got to hand it to her, especially as she won now two (Grand Slams)."
He also predicted her to finish as year-end No. 1 next year because he simply can't see anybody dethroning her:
"I think that Iga – I’m going to be (the one to) make the first prediction – I think that Iga Swiatek will easily stay the number one in the world at the end of next year. I think she’ll pick up another two Slams, and I don’t see any woman even close to her."
