"Yes for sure, it's a big goal": Iga Swiatek hopes to form dream doubles unit with Hubert Hurkacz at 2024 Olympic Games
Tennis NewsSunday, 24 December 2023 at 10:00
Iga Swiatek expressed her enthusiasm for teaming up with Hubert Hurkacz at the 2024 Paris Olympics after their victory in mixed doubles at the World Tennis League over the Russian pair of Mirra Andreeva and Andrey Rublev (6-2). The Polish duo is considered one of the favorites for the gold medal, as both are currently in the top-10, with Swiatek as the world No. 1 and Hurkacz at world No. 9.
The 4-times Grand Slam champion finished the year in great form and reclaimed the top spot in the WTA Ranking in the final week of competition. Swiatek defeated Jessica Pegula in the WTA Finals trophy match.
Swiatek's goals for 2024
In 2024, Swiatek will strive to maintain her world No. 1 ranking, secure more Grand Slam trophies, and the Olympic Games are a definite goal for the 22-year-old. As she mentioned, her first focus is on the upcoming Australian Open, but she looks forward to planning her participation in Paris with Hurkacz in a couple of months: 'Yes, for sure [it’s a big goal]. We’re going to have some time to think about that before the clay season obviously. But for now, I’m just thinking about Australia and trying not to go too far because the season is long and a lot of things can happen.'
The Olympics will take place on clay at Stade Roland Garros, the same venue as the French Open. Swiatek is currently the most successful player on the WTA Tour on this surface, with her three Roland Garros titles, equaling the achievements of players like Serena Williams and Monica Seles.
Swiatek expressed her joy at playing mixed doubles with Hurkacz and starting to get into rhythm for their upcoming partnership in Paris: 'But I’m really happy that I have the opportunity to play some mixed doubles with Hubi and to test it out and practice a little bit before the Olympics because getting a medal there would be a dream come true for sure,' Swiatek claimed.
