In heartbreaking news, Iga Świątek, the world-renowned tennis champion, has reportedly ended her professional relationship with her coach, Tomasz Wiktorowski. The news comes as a shock to fans and the tennis community, given the duo’s success together on the WTA Tour. While details surrounding the breakup are still emerging, sources suggest that the decision was mutual but difficult, considering their strong working relationship.
Świątek and Wiktorowski began collaborating in late 2021, following the departure of her previous coach, Piotr Sierzputowski. Under Wiktorowski’s guidance, Świątek enjoyed tremendous success, including winning multiple Grand Slam titles and securing the world No. 1 ranking. Their partnership was widely seen as one of the most fruitful in recent tennis history.
However, the demands of professional tennis, including constant travel, intense schedules, and the pressures of staying at the top of the game, may have contributed to the split. Some reports indicate that both Świątek and Wiktorowski may have felt it was time for a new direction in their careers.
