Eurosport expert Barbara Schett commented on Iga Swiatek, from whom everyone has high expectations before the Australian Open. “I think she's on the right track, and we all know that,” Schett said, as quoted by eurosport.com.
“Iga Swiatek is so driven.
She's working on dealing with that pressure so much. And she does have pressure. I mean, this year she's had, it's just outstanding. I can't remember when I've experienced that last.
And I remember at the beginning of the year when she suddenly became No.
1 in the world because Ash Barty announced her retirement. I was thinking, how is she going to deal with that situation now? And she has done so well. It was just outstanding.
So to me, she is the world No. 1. She might not have a year like that where she has such a run in winning so many matches, one after each other, but it doesn't matter.
Iga Swiatek
Swiatek is currently the best tennis player. Her qualities, will, and other things say that she will be a dangerous candidate this season as well. “She has the consistency, she has the shots. There's no real weaknesses.
I don't think she gets carried away and she's learned how to handle her emotions much better and I think she's still improving and getting better each day, each week, each month.
So I still think that Iga Swiatek will keep that No.
1 ranking if she will have these amazing winning streaks like this year in 2022.
And it's all about consistency, isn't it? At the end of the day, who plays the most consistent throughout the year will be No. 1 in the world.
She knows, even when she doesn't play her best tennis, that she's going to win those matches and she finds a way to win those matches”.
