Iga Swiatek pours cold water on Emma Raducanu excuse for skipping Olympic Games

Iga Swiatek has had her say on committing to the Olympic Games after several players decided not to compete. Iga Swiatek has explained why she won’t be skipping the Olympic Games like some of her rivals.

Emma Raducanu, Aryna Sabalenka and Ons Jabeur have already announced their decision to snub the Games in Paris this summer, citing the demanding switch from clay to grass and back to clay.

But world No. 1 Swiatek believes the surface changes aren’t an issue, explaining that a couple of days is enough time to adjust to the clay.
