Iga Swiatek, world No. 4, has shed light on one of the most talked-about decisions of the season: her separation from coach Wim Fissette.

In an exclusive interview with Sport.pl, the Pole emphasized the deep reflection that preceded this choice.

Swiatek's Explanation

"It's not something I would decide on a whim after a loss. I never take that kind of decision lightly; I remain very rational in my approach.

I don't change many things within my team; I like to give everyone the opportunity to start afresh and approach work differently.

It wasn't a decision made on the spot in Miami, but rather the result of a thoughtful process where I analyzed everything in detail."
