The organisers of the US Open 2022 surprised World No 1 Iga Swiatek by putting her favourite `tiramisu` inside the winners` trophy, ending the Pole star`s prolonged search for the dessert after winning the championships. The 21-year-old clinched her first US Open 2022 title on Saturday night after defeating Ons Jabeur 6-2, 7-6(5) in the final. It was her seventh title of the season. Close observers of Swiatek`s trophy ceremony routine have noticed her habit of looking inside the trophy while she`s on stage, feigning her disappointment each time she came up empty. It wasn`t the same this time.
After speaking to reporters at her champion`s press conference, Swiatek was told to check the trophy again, which had already played a comical role in her interview as she strained to look around it when speaking to reporters. To Swiatek`s delight, she finally found what she`s been looking for: her favorite dessert, tiramisu. "Oh, my God. Are you kidding me? Wow, who did that?.Thank you. I really appreciate it. Especially since I didn`t have anything to eat," Swiatek said.
