Iga Swiatek: 'I didn't want to give any points for free – it's a Wimbledon final and I wanted to win'

Iga Swiatek Reflects on Wimbledon Triumph, Future Plans

Poland's rising tennis star, Iga Swiatek, is set to make a pilgrimage to London and the All England Club after claiming her first Wimbledon title in July. The 24-year-old's triumph over Amanda Anisimova was marked by an astonishing double bagel, with Swiatek dominating the match 6-0, 6-0.

The victory marked a turning point for Swiatek, who struggled on grass courts throughout the year before finding her footing at Wimbledon. "Any season that has a Wimbledon win, I would take without hesitation," she said in an interview. "I'm super proud of this achievement."

Swiatek credited her team's hard work and adjustments to her game plan for her success. "We worked hard before Wimbledon to change some tactical patterns I also had in my head and wasn't really using in previous years. I felt, day by day, I had my game, and I really used the opportunity."

The win was a testament to Swiatek's mental toughness, particularly under pressure. When asked about her experience playing in the final, she replied, "I can only say that this tournament shows tennis is [such a] mental sport. This part of the game has a huge impact on everything and on the results of each player."

Swiatek's thoughts turn to the Australian Open, where she hopes to complete the career grand slam. With Aryna Sabalenka ahead of her at No 1, Swiatek faces stiff competition in 2025. However, she is determined to stay on top.

"My goal overall will be to combine that with good balance, still keep my good game on the slower surfaces … to really feel more comfortable with the variety I've got and know exactly where to use what skill," she said.

For now, Swiatek plans to cut down her commitments in 2026, focusing on practice and technique. "I would like to try missing maybe two tournaments – maybe the ones I feel I haven't been playing well at anyway – just spending this time on grinding and getting the technique better."

The Wimbledon title has given Swiatek a newfound sense of confidence, allowing her to approach future tournaments with renewed focus. As she prepares for the challenges ahead, one thing is clear: Iga Swiatek will be a force to be reckoned with in the tennis world for years to come.

And can we talk about her plans for 2025? 😂 Completing the career grand slam is a huge goal, but I think she's got this! She seems so focused on staying on top and mastering her game. And taking time off in 2026 to focus on practice and technique? Genius move if you ask me.

man this is amazing news 🎉 iga swiatek is on fire right now her mental toughness is insane and i love how she's staying humble about it, credits her team for all the hard work they put in. and wow 2 bagels against anisimova? that's a dominant performance 🤯 i'm hyped to see what she does at the aussie open next, she's got the skills and determination to take on sabalenka and anyone else. gotta respect how focused she is on her game too, cutting back on tournaments in 2026 to fine tune her technique? that's commitment 💪
 
man this iga swiatek is like a total boss on the court 🤯💪 her mental toughness is insane, she just takes it upon herself and crushes the competition 😎 but can we talk about how much of a contradiction this is? she's all about balance and variety in her game plan, but then again she's planning to cut down her commitments next year just to focus on practice... doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose of having multiple tournaments under your belt? 🤔 it feels like she's prioritizing individual improvement over actual competition experience. still can't deny she's got this 💪
