Swiatek struggling with 'perfectionism' ahead of Rome
Although she has reached at least the quarter-finals of each tournament she has contested this season, the Pole has yet to win a title or even reach a final. "This year I feel like I am struggling a bit more with my perfectionism," said the world No.2 at a press conference. "I have a love-and-hate relationship with my perfectionism. These clay court tournaments, I just try to reflect on how I see my game and how I also saw previous seasons. "The thing is, I only remember the good stuff because I was winning titles and everything. "I'm making decisions that are not really good at the moment because I just remember how it felt in previous tournaments. "I assume it's going to go in, and then I make mistakes. It's not the same, I'm confused." In 2024, Swiatek won five titles, including three in a row on clay -- Madrid, Rome and the French Open at Roland Garros. This year, however, she has yet to reach a final, falling at the semi-final stage at the Australian Open, Qatar Open, Indian Wells and Madrid where last week, she was routed 6-1, 6-1 by Coco Gauff in the semi-finals. "The match with Coco for sure wasn't good," said Swiatek. "I had trouble focusing. I wasn't moving well. I think everything kind of built up at one moment. That's why the score was like that." The 23-year-old, however, hit a pragmatic note with regard to the Gauff thrashing as she continues the build-up to the French Open where she will be looking for a fifth title in six years. "It's just like one day," she said. "You can't judge everything by it. I'm continuing the work that I've been doing. I trust the process. We'll see on the next one.
