Swiatek finally wears new On trainers for Japan Open tie....after six months with the brand

Current world number two Iga Swiatek wore the shoes from Roger Federer-backed On company during the Tokyo Open.

The 22-year-old made a winning start to her campaign in Japan after beating Mai Hontama in the round of 16 in straight sets with a score of 6-4, 7-5.

After the match, Swiatek posted a picture on her official account on social media platform X — previously known as Twitter — and confirmed that she wore the shoes from On brand.

Swiatek will be hoping to continue her winning run when she will face Russia’s Veronika Kudermetova in the quarterfinal of the competition.

A victory in Tokyo will be a big sigh of relief for the Polish tennis star, especially after she lost her top spot in the WTA rankings recently.

Swiatek is coming into the competition on the back of a disappointing outing in the recently concluded US Open where she was knocked out in the fourth round after losing to Latvia’s Jelena Ostapenko with a score of 3-6, 6-3, 6-1.
