Iga Swiatek has ruled the WTA Tour for a couple of years. Former world No. 5 Jimmy Arias is not really impressed with how the Polish player is carrying herself on court, even saying that she has been hurting the tennis.
During the ‘Inside Out podcast, he commented, “I want to see her personality. I don’t think she’s been great for women’s tennis. She wears her hat so low that you can’t even see her face or her eyes during a match. So you don’t get as much connection as you could. I don’t mind her getting angry in some ways, but I want to see her personality.”
