Iga Swiatek Slams WTA’s ‘Pretty Crazy’ Mandatory Rules

After beating Camila Osorio in Beijing R32, Swiatek called the WTA schedule “pretty crazy.” She warned, “I don’t think any top player will actually be able to achieve this… it’s impossible.” Citing fatigue and injuries, the six-time Slam winner said she may skip events despite penalties. WTA defended the rules as balancing welfare with $400M compensation growth.
