Iga Sviontek believes she made the right decision due to injury
Rashinyanka spoke about her feelings about the injury and many other topics in an interview with the Associated Press. “In the second set, right in the tie-break, I felt pain in my right thigh. It happened suddenly. At first I wasn’t sure if it was serious or not. Then, together with a physiotherapist, they conducted an examination. It shouldn’t be something serious, so I’m sure I’ll be back in the game soon.”
Polka does not hide the fact that a dense program of games gives her a lot of trouble. That’s why he would rather catch a little cold than later regret being hurt even more. - I’m tired. I think my decision yesterday to leave the game was the right one. I felt pain when I stretched and did dynamic movements. It is important for me to play it safe and not overload my body after several games played in night sessions, ”she explained.
Roland Garros is still the target of Iga Sviontek
Sviontek also commented on her match with Rybakina from a purely sporting point of view. “I know what mistakes I made. It wasn’t a big problem, but it was enough to lose. Yes, I felt the pressure, but I managed. Elena handled my first serve very well,” she said.
In the end, she said that she was going to prepare for the French Open, because she did not want to refuse to start in this prestigious tournament. “I need to recover to be ready for Roland Garros. I’ll take a vacation for a few days. Now I will have time to practice right before the tournament. I am satisfied with a few days off because I was unable to recover from Stuttgart due to a very busy schedule, she concluded.
