"Caused some hate towards me and my team": Iga Swiatek gives damning verdict on Break Point after cancellation

Iga Swiatek won 10 games in a row to defeat Linda Noskova 6-4, 6-0 to reach the Last 16 of Indian Wells which she will play on Tuesday. But one of the topics she was quizzed on post match was the recent cancellation of Netflix Break Point.
After initially being coy on the issue, Swiatek opened up about her own time on the show back in Season One and how in her viewpoint, it did more harm than it did good with her psychologist Daria Abramowicz in particular catching some criticism for their relationship with the latter seen as controlling. The World No.1 said that it was the controversy that made her opt out and in her mind, there were certain parts that were misinterpreted.

"Honestly, I didn't know about that. I don't have any answer to that right now," she said in her post-match press conference in Indian Wells.
"I was involved only in Season 1, and I gotta say that it was kind of a test for me if I'm going to be comfortable talking about my life and, like, opening up so much. I can only speak about my perspective. I think that the Netflix guys were really nice and really cooperative but in the end there wasn't much impact we had in terms of editing some stuff we didn't like," she added.
"I know I didn't give, like, much access, as much as other players. I accepted that I may not have the final voice, but there were some stuff that were misinterpreted," she said.
"My appearance in this series kind of caused some hate towards me and my team. So I just wanted to, you know, live my life peacefully and do my job, so that's why I didn't get into the second season," she added.
