They can shower Iga with gold. And that’s not all
Iga Świątek and other top tennis players will be competing in the WTA 500 tournament in Stuttgart. The organizers presented a pool of prizes in Germany, as well as the amount due to the players for achievements in subsequent rounds. Not only a check for a large sum awaits the winner.
Iga Świątek won the WTA 500 tournament in Stuttgart in 2022 and 2023, and Jelena Rybakina won the triumph at the previous edition. This time Kazaszek will not join the competition in Germany, and the Polish woman will fight for the title with such players as Aryna Sabalenka, Coco Gauff, Jessica Pegula or Mirra Andreyev. At stake is not only prestige and points to the world ranking.
