5 Telling Iga Swiatek quotes after the #Miamiopen R2 loss to Linette 1.) “It just was a bad match from me in 2nd and 3rd sets. For sure, it’s tough to handle that when I know I played well in 1st. I just, idk unconsciously or consciously, it’s hard for me to change things & then my tennis kinda collapses” 2.) “I haven’t felt like this in idk probably over 5 years. Dropping this much in matches. Ill just have to try to get my confidence back” 3.) I feel like I carry a lot of expectations when I’m on the court and I need to get rid of them because my game has not been good enough to have any expectations. I’m a bit confused, but I’ll just work hard ti get it back. I know I have it in me, I just lost it for a second” 4.) “This is the worse nightmare a top tennis player can have. Dropping in matches in level like this. I need to live through this and figure it out” 5.) “I’ve always been an over-thinker, but lately it’s just been so intense. It’s hard for me to get rid of many thoughts I have and this used to be my strength. I honestly played my best when I didn’t think much. Now I make so many bad decisions that it’s hard not to think. The stress comes in, the body gets so tense, and things get much harder.”
