Iga Świątek Reveals She Once Spent $100,000 on a Private Dinner With a Tennis Player She Loved — Only to Be Rejected

Love doesn’t always follow the script — even for champions. 🎾
In a candid confession that has surprised fans worldwide, World No. 1 Iga Świątek opened up about one of the most emotional — and expensive — moments of her personal life. The Polish tennis sensation revealed that she once spent $100,000 organizing an exclusive private dinner with a fellow tennis player she had quietly admired for years.
According to Świątek, the dinner was meant to be “a once-in-a-lifetime evening” — intimate, private, and heartfelt. She reportedly booked a luxury restaurant abroad, hired a live orchestra, and had the entire menu customized around her guest’s favorite dishes.
But despite the grand gesture, the story didn’t end as she hoped. The unnamed player, while flattered, turned down her romantic intentions, choosing to remain just friends.
“I wanted to be honest about how love makes us do extraordinary things,” Świątek said. “Sometimes you can win every match on the court and still lose one off it.”
Fans have praised Iga for her honesty and emotional maturity, calling it “a reminder that money can buy moments — but not hearts.”
Whether seen as a costly heartbreak or a bold act of vulnerability, one thing is clear: even champions feel the sting of rejection.
