The situation of the best Polish tennis player was complicated. Today, she is the 65th player in the world, but the WTA ranking of May 20th was the decision to qualify for Wimbledon. Swieta was 106th. To enter the main ladder, three competitors should abandon the start. Otherwise, Polka should play in qualifying.
Leak in committee deliberations
Iwięta is the 2018 Wimbledon champion in the junior category. Usually, she had a joker to eliminate. Of course, she did not need it because of the high position in the rankings. In 2006, Agnieszka Radwaanska, who was in a similar situation, received an invitation to the main tournament. The Swieta camp had a similar gesture, but the case was not certain, as the wild cards were arbitrarily recognized by a special committee of the British Tennis Federation. His representative reportedly monitored one of the 18-year-olds at Roland Garros. Later, one of the Polish officials also put pressure on Świątek.
Officially, the list of Wimbledon's wild cards (eight tennis players and tennis players) will be announced on Wednesday, June 19th. On Tuesday, however, the committee meeting was held and, as informed editor Tenisklub.pl on Twitter – Adam Romer – a positive decision for the city. Polka will participate in the third consecutive Grand Slam tournament. At the Open of Australia, after the elimination, she reached the second round and in Paris, at IV. At the US Open, he will start thanks to his position in the standings.
A quick defeat of Ostapenko
A sure start to Wimbledon means that Swiatek will probably be in the Eastbourne tournament. She planned this departure if she did not have to play the London qualifications.
First season start on the grass, Swiecie ended Tuesday in Birmingham – in the first round, but on the fourth rival. Three defeats in qualifying, playing every day from Saturday to Monday. She has successively won: the Italian Martina Trevisan (WTA 166), the Australian Destanee Aiava (WTA 197) and the American Bernarda Pera (WTA 93). The last meeting was particularly fierce. Swiety defended all three games in the deciding game in the second set before winning 2: 6, 7: 6 (8-6), 6: 4.
In a meeting with Ostapenko (WTA 37), champion Roland Garros two years ago, the Polish quickly dominated the court. It hit hard, but it did not serve much, it served less than usual. She lost the match in 52 minutes. Despite this, 25 points could give him another promotion in the WTA rankings.
Now, several days of training are waiting for him. Wimbledon will start on Monday, July 1st.
