When everything seemed to be falling apart, paradise was conquered. Iga Swiatek recovered from the biggest sporting crisis of her life with unprecedented force and speed. After over a year without winning a title, watching Sabalenka clearly surpass her in the rankings, and being dominated on clay courts, her natural habitat, the Wimbledon title has changed everything.

This is what Iga Swiatek expressed at the WTA 1000 Montreal 2025 press conference, after comfortably defeating Eva Lys to secure her spot in the round of 16. The Polish player is smiling again, regaining confidence in herself, something that seemed unattainable a few months ago, when she ended the always prolific clay court season without titles and felt displaced from the elite. Winning in London has been an influx of confidence that is evident in her game but also in her attitude on and off the court.

"I have no doubt that I would always sign up to go a year without winning titles if, in return, I later conquer a Grand Slam. I focus on how I improved my game on grass," states Iga, who had to endure criticism and speculation about her before that revealing triumph. "I try not to read anything published about me because nonsensical things are said. It's pretty ridiculous what has reached me, so it doesn't make sense for me to pay attention to what you publish. I'm sorry, guys," she said unapologetically.

When asked about her progression in managing matches where she is the favorite, Iga Swiatek offered an interesting insight. "As a youngster, I didn't feel like a dominator, but as I improved, I realized how important it is to trust yourself and find that balance between maximum concentration, humility, and confidence. Being consistent makes me believe that I can always turn the situation around, even if it starts badly," stated the Polish player, whose next opponent at the WTA 1000 Montreal 2025 will be the Danish player Clara Tauson.
