Jule Niemeier: Iga Świątek is the best tennis player in the world

The 23-year-old Dortmund player, despite playing her first career game on Louis Armstrong Stadium, in the first set, the jitters of the beginnings were completely absent. Twice – once in the first and once in the seventh game – she broke Christmas and after 42 minutes she won the set 6:2. I think I did very well in the first set. I played aggressive and I played mine tennis. But then my serve started to fail. And if you don’t serve 100%, it’s very difficult to beat an opponent like Iga, who is the best in the world. – said the 108th ranked tennis player IN THIS.

Until the start of the second set, the German had a faultless record in U.S. Open. In previous duels, she dismissed the American without losing a set Sofia Kenina player from Kazakhstan Julia Putintseva and Qinwen Zheng from China. However, that’s where his streak ended, because after a weird set – seven breaks – it turned out to be better Christmas. In the second set I wasn’t serving very well anymore, but I still had a chance because we were breaking. If I had kept the pass at 3:4 or 4:5, I might even have won it Niemeyer summarized.

In the third set, the Pole finally picked up the pace and didn’t let the German play. Jule Niemeier when asked at the conference what she could do better next time to give herself a better chance of winning, she replied: Serve better. Even though I lost the third set 0:6, it was fiercer than the result would suggest. I had my chance in game two, and in game five I took a 40:15 lead. But it’s like that tennis. Next time, apart from serving, I would also like to play more aggressively in the second or third set. It might help me defeat Iga – She has finished.
