Iga Swiatek is playing in Dubai this week but what does the start of her 2023 campaign look like and what events she'll play ahead of the Australian Open.
It's known where the Polish player and current world number one will head to after this event. Like most of the Tour she'll be down under with her first event being the United Cup where she'll be able to play for Poland. The event starts on December 29th and she'll be an important player for her country.
It's unlikely that she will play any more events leading up to the Australian Open because she'll want to stay fresh for that event. Last year's Australian Open was a strong event for her as she reached the semi-final but got beaten by Danielle Collins. This year, she might actually win it, especially if she brings her US Open level.
