Iga Swiatek will embark on her Roland Garros title defence tomorrow morning on Court Philippe-Chatrier and Mats Wilander, former World No.1 believes if she plays well, she is 'unbeatable'.
Swiatek won in Paris last year without dropping a set and emerged as a major star in the tennis world.
“When she plays well, she’s unbeatable. She has every shot, she plays aggressive, she’s not afraid of coming forward. She serves well, she’s got a good second serve," said Wilander.
He also discussed the attitude of Swiatek who will turn 20 on Monday and how it transpires both on and off the court respectively.
"I feel like she’s not out there (only) to win tournaments necessarily, but it doesn’t faze her, really. She just has this (attitude): I’m going to be a great player, I’m completely grounded in my life and grounded on the court. I take risks and sometimes it doesn’t work but I have the game to win these tournaments.”
