Passing through a press conference a few minutes after his heavy defeat against Cori Gauff in half -final WTA 1000 from Madrid, Iga Swiatek, who would have attended the burial of his grandfather just before the tournament, did not look for an excuse, insisting in particular on his mobility, completely absent.
“I feel like I don’t move well. My tennis was unstable during most of the tournament. So I didn’t really know what I had at my disposal. I didn’t even have a plan B, because nothing worked today. Coco has played well but I think it came from me. I felt like I was not even positioned well with my feet, you know, before the blows. I would have liked to move better, because I think it would have given me the opportunity to bounce back, because this is often what happens. But today (Thursday), that’s for sure, I haven’t moved well. I hope that one day it will be tilt, but I am not waiting for anything, I will just try to work to try to move better and to give me a better chance. »»
