The second part of the first season of Break Point aired and a scene with Swiatek and her coach went viral on social media with fans reacting to it in confusion.
Iga Swiatek is currently the number-one ranked player in the world and she's certainly one of the best players on the Tour. Getting to that level took a lot of work and sacrifice and it wasn't always smooth. Her crying on a tennis court during the 2021 WTA Finals didn't happen that long ago and her turnaround since then has been amazing.
Swiatek credited her sports psychologist Daria Abramowicz as helping her overcome those doubts she had about herself. The Polish superstar became a very vocal advocate of mental health since then championing several causes back home though the relationship left some fans confused after a scene from Break Point left them wondering.

Swiatek: "I refuse to sacrifice my hair for the sport when everything else is."
Some fans reacted on social media pointing out how weird the situation was:
"This relationship is weirded than I thought like why is a player’s psychologist over seeing her getting a haircut."
"Why is your sports psychologist at your hair appointment????"
"She is creepy as hell, I am telling you again she has no respect for psychology ethics at all cus why the hell she is giving her opinion about Iga’s hair length. She is literally trying put herself Iga’s mother position."
