World No.1 Iga Swiatek said on Wednesday she will put a breakthrough 2022 season behind her to concentrate on staying at the pinnacle of the women’s game. The Polish star won eight singles titles, including the French and US Opens, in a stellar season that saw her take a commanding position at the top of the rankings, well clear of second-placed Ons Jabeur of Tunisia.
The 21-year-old inherited the No.1 with the shock retirement of Australia’s Ashleigh Barty in March, but has since made it her own. “I’m going to try to kind of cut off everything that happened last year and just focus on the future, because I feel like I can take a lot of experience from these tournaments last year,” she said ahead of the inaugural mixed-teams United Cup in Brisbane. “I don’t want to really like hold on to that too much, because I want to go forward and kind of focus on my next goals.”
