Director of Roland Garros and two-time Grand Slam winner Amelie Mauresmo commented on the game of the first racket of the world Iga Swiatek this season.
Share:“The way Iga has been playing in recent months, it is clear that she is now the boss. We see the progress of a new generation: Swiatek, Osaka if she is stable at a high level, and Jabeur, who also began to play completely differently. I hope the audience of “Roland Garros” will be able to appreciate it. Women’s tennis has been criticized for years for its formulaic style of play. I believe that a new era is beginning, ”Mauresmo quotes Eurosport.
The 20-year-old Iga is on a 28-win streak. The last time the winner of Roland Garros 2020 lost was in mid-February, losing to Latvian Jelena Ostapenko in the 1/16 finals of the tournament in Dubai (6:4, 1:6, 6:7).
Since then, Swiatek has won five tournaments in a row.
