"I tried to use that time to really try to think about what to change.
Because I remember earlier when I was younger, all I did in the bathroom between sets when I lost was cry, this time I can actually think about what to change and actually problem solve. I am pretty glad that I did that because I just had a new idea for the second set and that's great," she said.

Iga Swiatek in action at the 2022 US Open. Expanding on how her contest with Aryna Sabalenka played out, Iga Swiatek said that she tried to make sure her first serve was on point as the Belarusian was attacking her second serve to put pressure on the top seed. "Well, honestly, I think [I] just tried to put the first serve in because she was really aggressive on a second serve.

So she was putting pressure on me and I realized that even though in second set I broke her couple of times it's gonna be tough because she can serve well and I feel like she did progress with her. I needed to really be careful and even though I lost the first game I just had hope," she said.

https://t.co/J6ee7HPx5C The 21-year-old said that she was not expecting to break her opponent as Sabalenka was on the money with her serve. "Honestly, I wasn’t expecting too much from myself because as I said Aryna is a great server so I wasn't sure if I'm gonna break her back but I feel like I just played on another level, so that's great," she explained. Iga Swiatek will face fifth seed Ons Jabeur in Saturday’s women’s singles final, after the Tunisian beat Caroline Garcia 6-1, 6-3 in the other semifinal.
