It all depends upon their preparation. The season can go in numerous methods, as properly, by way of accidents.”

Swiatek shall be closely backed so as to add an Olympic title to her trophy cupboard in Paris subsequent 12 months with the tennis event set to be held on the pink clay of Roland Garros. “This time is going to be a little bit different,” stated Swiatek, who was left in tears after a second-round loss to Paula Badosa on the Tokyo Games two years in the past.
