A lot of weird things happen in the span of two weeks," Pegula reflects on Swiatek's Wimbledon victory
In an interview shared by *Tennis Up To Date*, Pegula looked back on Swiatek’s Wimbledon win. While the American’s own elimination surprised everyone, as she had been considered one of the favorites, the Polish player’s title was among the least expected outcomes.
"I didn’t watch her much during Wimbledon. I’m not sure if she was better than in Bad Homburg because she was already serving really well and playing great tennis, beating good grass-court players. I think our final was a very high-level match. It was really tight.
You know, she was always a bit down about grass, and I told her, ‘Hey, you play really well on this surface, I don’t really get why you think you’re bad.’ So it’s kind of funny that she ended up winning Wimbledon, but that’s tennis. You never know.
She’s a great player regardless, so she’ll be good on any surface. But yeah, it’s interesting… tennis is surprising. A lot of weird things happen in the span of two weeks.
