Iga Swiatek lost at Roland Garros. There are positives, but we might have to wait.

Six-time a Grand Slam champion, Swiatek might need another year to get back on track.

________________________________

With a pretty disappointing season prior to the clay, Iga Swiatek looked a lot better with a new coach in her camp.

After a solid run in Rome losing out to defending champion Elina Svitolina, some even said Swiatek might be a big favourite to win the Roland Garros title a fifth time.

She won her first two rounds, avoided a dangerous clash against Ostapenko, and then lost in two sets to Madrid champion Marta Kostyuk in the 4th round in Paris.

Now what? Is it the end for Swiatek? Are her best days already behind her? Are the only things left for her now her memories and trophies?

I don't think so. It's never clear cut, but Swiatek is only 25 years old, and it happens to basically any great player to have a slump, a bad season or two, or to deal with some difficulties during their careers. The important thing is to keep coming back, keep trying to find solutions, keep playing and fighting.

It won't be easy, but with patience and resilience, I really think Swiatek will get back to her best - and maybe lift the Roland Garros trophy again as early as next year.
