Iga Swiatek says she felt «overwhelmed» at the whirlwind that accompanied her becoming World No. 1. The 20-year-old Pole achieved the milestone in March at the Miami Open after an unexpected series of events that saw her win in Doha, Indian Wells and ultimately Miami, and also saw Ash Barty vacate the top spot in the WTA rankings after announcing her retirement.
Iga Swiatek says Rafa Nadal's approach to tennis is what she plans to model her career on. The 20-year-old Pole — who became No. 1 last month following the retirement of Ash Barty — has sparkled so far in 2022, landing a stunning sunshine double by winning Indian Wells and Miami back-to-back.

Ukraine came up just short in a thrilling comeback bid on Saturday, falling 3-2 to the United States, who booked their spot in the Billie Jean King Cup Finals. Trailing 0-2 to start the day, Ukraine had singles wins from Dayana Yastremska and Katarina Zavatska to pull level before Asia Muhammad and Jessica Pegula beat Yastremska and Lyudmyla Kichenok in the decisive doubles match 7-6 (7/5), 6-3. The final match capped an emotional week in Asheville, North Carolina, where Ukrainian players acknowledged it was hard to concentrate on the task at hand amid worry over family and friends at home during the ongoing Russian invasion. "I always like to represent my country but now at this moment it's, well, it's tough to describe it," Yastremska said after her 6-3, 6-4 victory over Pegula. "My heart stays at home, but my mind is here." At least the Ukrainians had moments to celebrate, including 201st-ranked Zavatska's 6-3, 6-4 upset of 46th-ranked Shelby Rogers that leveled the tie at 2-2.
