Iga Swiatek had a historic year in 2022, finishing the season as world number 1 in the WTA Rankings with a commanding lead over her nearest competitor.

Not only did she earn the top spot, but she also won two Grand Slam titles at the 2022 Roland Garros and 2022 US Open, adding to her previous triumph at the 2020 Roland Garros. As Swiatek enters the 2023 season, there are a few things she can do to build on her success and continue her dominance in the world of tennis.

First and foremost, Swiatek will need to maintain her fitness and health. In 2022, she didn't experience any major injury setback and that also allowed her to win 37 consecutive matches, breaking previous record of Venus Williams.

In addition to maintaining her physical fitness, Swiatek will also need to continue to improve her game. Although it may seem to be almost perfec, there is always room for growth and development. This could involve working on specific areas of her game, such as her serve or her return, or it could involve trying out new tactics and strategies to keep her opponents guessing.
