The schedule is insane": Swiatek sounds the alarm again
Having qualified for the third round in Beijing, the world No. 1 denounces a grueling pace that weighs on players. Fatigue, pressure, and lack of rest: the Polish player speaks candidly.
Iga Swiatek is one of the players who consistently speaks out about the density of the current schedule. Present in the third round in Beijing, the Polish player reiterated in a press conference: players compete "way too much" during the year.
"When I look at the schedule, I think we play way too much. The schedule is insane. It's very demanding and difficult. That's what comes to my mind first. That's why I break the year into several tours and just try to focus on the one ahead.
After a four-week preseason and eight days of vacation, if I look at the schedule and see that I'll have to be at my best for the next eleven months, it's hard to imagine. It's better to take things step by step.
