Wimbledon: 'Iga Has To Play At Least 80 To 90 Per Cent Of Her Best Tennis,’ Says Amritraj After Defending Champion’s Nervy Start
Former India Davis Cup: Former India Davis Cup captain Vijay Amritraj believes defending champion Iga Swiatek will need to produce close to her best tennis to keep her Wimbledon 2026 title defence on track, while also backing Indian doubles players Yuki Bhambri and N. Sriram Balaji to make deep runs at the All England Club.
Speaking ahead of the second-round action at Wimbledon, Amritraj assessed Swiatek's challenge against Karolina Pliskova and expressed confidence in India's doubles prospects if both pairs continue their recent form. Previewing her clash against former world No. 1 Karolina Pliskova, he said the Pole would benefit significantly from navigating difficult early-round encounters as she attempts to defend her crown.
“At the moment, it's very important for Swiatek to win these tight matches because it gets her mentally prepared for tough situations,” Amritraj told JioStar.
