CELEBRITYIga Swiatek’s Wimbledon Loss Highlights Struggle to Emulate Novak Djokovic,….
Iga Swiatek was swept out of Wimbledon in the third round, but her post-match comments should have sounded more like Djokovic.
Iga Swiatek just cannot seem to be as great at Wimbledon as she can seemingly everywhere else. She is the top-ranked player on the WTA tour and probably is going to stay that way for many years to come. She is a fantastic player, but she is not a great grass-court player. Three times since 2019, the Pole has been knocked out of the grass-court major by the third round.
Against Yulia Putintseva in the third round, Swiatek was simply outplayed and outhit. If one did not know who was the top seed and was watching the match, the person likely would not have guessed the No. 1 player was Swiatek. Putintseva crushed the Pole’s serve and overwhelmed Swiatek with power.
