Satzbälle und körperliche Belastung meistern
The decisive test arrived in the second set, when Świątek was forced to defend three set points on her own serve. She held her serve by approaching those crucial moments without changing her mindset, treating them like ordinary points to avoid excess pressure. After closing out the final tie-break point, both competitors met at the net to exchange a high five, a brief hug, and a smile, with Bouzkova showing positive spirits despite battling until the end. Świątek complimented Bouzkova after the match and noted that winning such tight contests strengthens player confidence. Acknowledging the physical toll of the intense two-set battle, Świątek pointed to the scheduled rest day before her next appearance as sufficient time to recharge.
„Ich wurde natürlich müde, die Intensität des Matches kann einem viel abverlangen. Und obwohl es ein Zweisatzmatch war, war es eigentlich lang. Allerdings habe ich einen freien Tag und kann mich in Ruhe erholen.“
