I try to do the same, but I'm still working on it," Swiatek reveals the aspect of Alcaraz she is inspired by
Iga Swiatek arrives in Montreal aiming to confirm her good form and her Wimbledon title. In a press conference, she explained that she needs to relax more and take inspiration from Carlos Alcaraz for this.
She states: "I would like to be more like Carlos, because I have to say that he inspires me a lot in this regard.
He always says that the most important thing for him on the tennis court is to have fun and enjoy himself, but sometimes I forget that.
With all the pressure surrounding us and what we have to do off the court, we need to remember that kid who started playing tennis for the love of the game instead of winning for someone else, and carrying that weight of responsibility on his shoulders.
Of course, when Carlos shows it and talks about it, it's always a good reminder. I try to do the same, but I'm still working on it. I think if I don't, my brain would automatically go into 'work, work, work' mode.
