Iga Swiatek Focused After 'Peaceful' Off-Season Ahead Of Australian Open

World number one Iga Swiatek said Friday a "peaceful" off-season had left her more focused heading into the Australian Open as she targets her first Grand Slam title at Melbourne Park. The Polish top seed is in imperious form, dropping just one set in five wins at the lead-up United Cup mixed-teams tournament in Perth. She enters the opening Grand Slam of the year as favourite, on a 16-match win streak that included tournament victories at the China Open and the WTA Finals. "It was nice to play some high-quality matches against the top players (at the United Cup)," she said. "I realised that I'm feeling pretty confident, a little bit better than last year. Hopefully this feeling is going to stay with me."
