"I’ve got lots of respect for the poise with which she has gone about everything. I have to take my hat off to her for the way she has dealt with all the hubbub surrounding her. She’s after all still only 21. I know her well and am eager to find out how much longer she will continue at the same high level,” she said.

The 34-year-old German praised Swiatek for her mental strength and called her "a player that is very difficult to beat."
