Swiatek Conquers Adelaide
The 19-year-old Pole did not lose a set en route to her second career WTA title. Playing in her third WTA final, Swiatek dropped just four games against Belinda Bencic. She has now won 16 of her last 18 matches.
“For sure it’s good for me, because I can see that I can play good tennis for the whole week. It wasn’t like one time during the French Open,” Swiatek said. “It gives me more confidence that I’m a more developed player, and I can play well more often. It just gives me motivation. It’s good.”
