Polish teenager Iga Swiatek is in the limelight again. With the French Open soon about to begin, and herself being the defending champion, there will be expectations from the youngster. She has performed exceedingly well in the recent tournaments. These results she has obtained do make her a possible contender to defend her title. 

Not long ago, Iga Swiatek was part of an interview, in which she spoke on fashion. She praised Naomi Osaka for being innovative with her outfits. At the same time, she felt the need to work on her fashion sense. Swiatek had to wear a dress for the photoshoot after she won the French Open last year and she was happy with her choice.

The 19-year-old player spoke on this topic and stated, “The thing is I don’t have a lot of knowledge on fashion. When I see Naomi doing all the projects, I really respect that because that part of life I don’t have much knowledge about. I had some great choices like the dress I wore after winning the French Open for the trophy photoshoot, which was a good choice. Well, I still got to improve on that.”
