Iga Swiatek defends herself after 'unacceptable' actions to Indian Wells ball kid: 'Didn't expect harsh judgements…'

Hindustan Times  

WTA world number two Iga Swiatek was involved in a controversial situation during her loss at the WTA 1000 event at Indian Wells in California, but has responded to the criticism she received with a statement of apology on her Instagram account. Iga Swiatek shows her frustration to the umpire during her three set defeat against Mirra Andreeva in their Semifinal match during BNP Paribas Open The former world number one was outduelled by Russian teenager Mirra Andreeva in the semifinal of the Indian Wells event, considered one of the biggest non-slam events on the professional tour. Andreeva pulled off one of her biggest results to date, beating defending Indian Wells champion Swiatek 7-6 1-6 6-3 in the desert to book a spot in the final against world number one Aryna Sabalenka. "My intention was never to aim the ball at anyone but merely to release my frustration by bouncing it on the ground.” “I immediately apologised to the ball boy, we made eye contact and nodded to each other when I expressed regret that it happened near him,” explained the Pole, before defending herself by saying “I've seen many players bounce balls in frustration, and frankly, I didn't expect such harsh judgements.” "Usually, I control such impulses, so half-jokingly I can say I lack experience in this and misjudged my aim in the heat of the moment,” continued Swiatek.
