World number one, Iga Swiatek, stated that she couldn’t believe her achievements after looking back at her recent achievements.
The 23-year-old is already regarded as the best female tennis player in the singles category. Swiatek recently won the French Open after beating Italy’s Jasmine Paolini in the final in straight sets with a score of 6-2, 6-1.
Swiatek was recently quoted in a report, stating that she could not believe what she had achieved in the last eight weeks.
"I was like 'Oh my god, this!', I mean, when I look at my calendar on my phone it looks crazy," she said. "How am I going to survive that? But, here I am, and honestly, I think I learned that if I enjoy life off the court I really enjoyed being in Madrid, Rome, and here. It helped me also to be fresh on-court.”
It was Swiatek’s third consecutive title while playing at the Roland Garros. She won the French Open in 2022 after beating America’s Coco Gauff in the final in straight sets with a score of 6-1, 6-3. Last year, the reigning world number one defeated Karolína Muchova in the final, scoring 6-2, 5-7, 6-4 to lift the title.
