Once a player to beat, Iga Swiatek has suffered a steep downfall. While she has failed to win a title this season, let alone a major title, Swiatek’s performances of late have hardly been encouraging for her fans. With the Wimbledon Championships not very far away, Swiatek had a golden opportunity to rack up some momentum at the Bad Homburg Open. However, she has invited further criticism from fans after a shocking display against Jessica Pegula.
The Pole was up against Pegula in the final of the tournament. However, she went down tamely in straight sets 6-4, 7-5 to keep her title drought going. A drought that has been ongoing for a whopping 1 year, since last year’s French Open win. What was surprising to watch was that Swiatek committed as many as 39 unforced errors throughout the match. After this uncharacteristic display fans didn’t hesitate to offer their own analyses of what went wrong: “Iga was overly aggressive most times, she made many silly errors. It is good to be aggressive on grass but not overly aggressive.” It was something that Swiatek would have to keep in mind if she is to emerge successful at Wimbledon.

Further, another fan highlighted Swiatek’s silly mistakes throughout the match. “39 ues is way too much,” highlighting the lack of killer instinct from Swiatek.
