Iga Swiatek as the defending champion of Roland Garros had a chat with Daniela Hantuchova where she talked about the event.
Hantuchova opened the interview by welcoming Iga to the official YouTube channel of Roland Garros and asked her what's the first thing Swiatek thinks of when she hears Roland Garros. Swiatek said:
"Hard one actually, because so many emotions. I was unable to process that. It all seems kind of blurry for me. Being proud of myself is the strongest emotion."
Swiatek also spoke about the time she finally realized she was a Grand Slam champion with her saying that it came when she went on holidays much after the event.
Hantuchova also asked Swiatke when did she start believing that she could win the event and Iga said:
"When I played Simona I had some doubts because of 2019. After the match I gained much more confidence."
Hantuchova asked Swiatek if she has any superstitions that help her to which Iga said:
"I'm not superstitious but I like to keep my routines. We are just going to have to see what it looks like."
Swiatek also touched upon the kind messages she got from Polish celebrities and Tennis legends including Rod Laver and many more things. You can check out the full talk below.

- I predicted whenthe list was finalised that Linda Noskova would win the WTA Finals and her matches against Gauff and Kostyuk prove that. She is the best (underrated) player in the world!Rapunzel11-11-2026
- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
