Iga Świątek has confirmed that she will soon appoint a new coach from outside Poland, marking a significant change in her team. This decision follows her split from long-time coach Tomasz Wiktorowski, under whom she achieved immense success, including four Grand Slam titles.

However, Świątek believes that now is the time for fresh insights to help her improve her game on other surfaces, like grass and hard courts.
