WATCH: ‘Wait, I’m Not Playing Olympics?’: Swiatek Corrects Journalist Over Olympics Gaffe

ga Swiatek left a tennis reporter during a Wimbledon pre-tournament press conference with an egg on his face over her Olympics participation.

Swiatek is due to compete at the 2024 Wimbledon Championships. The main draw action for the third Grand Slam of the season will begin on July 1st. The Pole is the top seed at the event and has been paired against Sofia Kenin in the standout first-round match in the women’s tournament.

The World No. 1 has not played a competitive match since winning Roland Garros in early June. She withdrew from the star-studded WTA 500 event in Berlin shortly after that success.

Nevertheless, Swiatek is confident about her level, having arrived in London early to practice, and is happy with the way she’s found her rhythm on grass, which is her trickiest surface.

During her presser ahead of her first-round match, an AP journalist made a mockery of himself when he asked Swiatek whether she had any plans to play in the Olympics in the future after withdrawing from this year’s Games.
