The Pole stated that the matter is "complicated" and that she does not want to make a decision on her own. She does, however, think that there are plenty of "wise" people in the ATP and WTA who can direct players in the right direction. "To be honest, this is a complicated situation and I don't really want to make such a decision myself, because I know that there are many wise people, even in the WTA and ATP, who could, for example, declare themselves in advance and guide us in such a way that it does not affect the mood in the locker room or the personal relations between the players. On the one hand, I know that it is not their fault that their country started the war, but on the other hand, there is social responsibility," Iga Swiatek said.
