“Coco Gauff has figured out Iga Swiatek” – Tennis insider makes bold claim after American’s United Cup win
A tennis insider has made a bold claim following Coco Gauff’s recent victory over Iga Swiatek at the United Cup, suggesting that the American may have “figured out” the Polish star. Gauff’s win marked a significant moment in their budding rivalry, with the 19-year-old overcoming the four-time Grand Slam champion in a hard-fought battle.
The insider speculated that Gauff’s improved tactical approach, along with her increasing confidence, may have given her the upper hand against Swiatek, who has dominated women’s tennis over the past couple of years. Gauff, known for her athleticism and strong baseline game, appeared more aggressive and poised during the match, dictating points and neutralizing Swiatek’s powerful groundstrokes.
According to the claim, Gauff’s ability to adapt her game and exploit weaknesses in Swiatek’s strategy could signal a shift in their head-to-head matchups. Previously, Swiatek had enjoyed a commanding record against Gauff, including high-profile wins at Roland Garros. However, Gauff’s recent victory may indicate that she is finding ways to better handle Swiatek’s varied style and relentless consistency.
The win at the United Cup could be a turning point for Gauff, as she looks to establish herself as a consistent threat to Swiatek and other top players on the WTA Tour. With both players still in the early stages of their careers, this rivalry is expected to continue producing exciting and closely contested matches.
As the 2025 season kicks off, many will be watching closely to see whether Gauff can maintain this newfound edge over Swiatek and whether the Polish star will adapt to reclaim dominance in their future encounters.
