Iga SVENTEK: “I try to support and show Ukrainian women”

The world’s first racket Iga Sviontek He talked about how he focused on tennis given the war in Ukraine.

“At the beginning of the war, I didn’t know how to react to that either. There is sometimes so much evil and violence in the world that I decided it would be easier for me to reflect on the struggle that has happened and will happen on the field and focus on this particular task.

I thought that if I played better tennis, more people would hear the message I wanted to convey. In any case, I think what I’m trying to convey are good values. I try to support Ukrainian women to show that I am against the war, and at least I try to show it by wearing a ribbon or answering all questions at press conferences.

I understand that in general it is not easy to act in such a world of tennis, where we are all from different countries, different nationalities … There is tension and friction between some players. In moments like these, I try to focus on myself and remember that the most important thing for me is to play my best tennis because then more people will hear me,” Swiatek said.

Note that Poles defended the title in the courts of Roland Garros this year.
