Iga Swiatek finally played a great match at the WTA Finals handing Paula Badosa her first loss and after the match, the Pole admitted she was glad it worked out.
The WTA Finals started off rough for Iga Swiatek who lost her first two matches leaving her devastated and disappointed in herself. Swiatek, a very emotional player in her own words, was determined not to leave with any wins and against Badosa she finally put forward an excellent performance. After the match she said:
"I think it was a really solid match from me. I'm pretty happy that I had a chance to show my tennis finally, overcome all these factors around, just play the game. I really enjoyed myself today on court, which is really important for me. Also, I hope Paula, she's going to have the best result here. I'm going to be cheering for sure tomorrow."
The WTA Finals experience was not a great one for Swiatek but she is leaving Mexico on a positive note. Asked about the general impression of the event she said it was a special one for sure and she will fight hard to be back next year:
"For sure this tournament was special. Playing three days with such high-quality players, it's hard. I hope my next time is going to be a little bit more lucky for me. I know in tennis you kind of have to wait for all of the factors around to kind of match, also your game to match it, so you can win the tournaments."
