After putting on a stellar display of her prowess in the initial rounds at SW19, Iga Swiatek was stunned in the quarterfinals. It was the Ukrainian tennis star, Elina Svitolina, who outperformed the number one seed in the grass-court major, 7-5, 6-7(5), 6-2. The Polish tennis player was quite disappointed as she was on a 37-match winning streak prior to her defeat in London. Now, after a lackluster Wimbledon campaign, the 4 singles Grand Slam champion has decided to unwind on a solo vacation.

The current world no.1 has picked an exotic location in Greece to recharge her batteries. Here are some glimpses from the WTA star’s ‘Greek’ vacation.
