Aryna Sabalenka Names Iga Swiatek Her Toughest Foe After Serena Williams

Asked by TNT Sports, Sabalenka said the toughest opponent she’s faced, beyond Serena Williams, is Iga Swiatek. “Serena and Iga probably,” she said. Sabalenka trails Swiatek 5-8 in 13 meetings. After early losses, she snapped through wins at the 2022 WTA Finals, Madrid 2023, and beat Swiatek at Roland Garros semifinals in 2025, including a lone 2021 debut win.
