Iga happy winning her third consecutive title in Doha
The Polish world number one player, Iga Świątek, expressed her happiness at winning her third consecutive title at the Doha Championship, confirming that this edition was not easy for her, especially after her unexpected exit from the Australian Open Tennis Championship.
The player said, "I am extremely happy because I continued to work hard and maintained my focus on the positive aspects, which is the reason behind my achievement of this result and this accomplishment. I hope to be able to benefit from it in the upcoming tournaments."
Regarding the reasons for her success in the Doha Championship, Świątek said that there is no specific reason for her success in the city of Doha, but perhaps it is due to the efforts she made in preparation for this championship.
Świątek added that she benefited from the medical timeout taken by her opponent Rybakina in the first set, as it helped her to catch her breath, regain her composure, and search for solutions to the challenges she faced during the early sets.
She continued, "That break gave me more time to talk to my coaches and to slightly adjust my game plan during the match, which helped me reduce the percentage of errors I was committing."
Regarding the role of the coaching staff in her recent significant achievements, the player expressed her happiness with her collaboration with her current coach over the past two years. The change has been very positive as she benefits from his experience in difficult situations, especially in finals like the one she played against Rybakina.
