“Aryna Sabalenka Atakuje Świątek, a Iga Odpoczywa z Rodziną – Zobacz Zdjęcia, Które Wzburzyły Fanów!”
World No. 5 Iga Swiatek’s recent family vacation photos have taken social media by storm, but not just for their sun-soaked charm. The Polish tennis star’s idyllic beach getaway with her family, shared on Instagram, has reignited tensions with World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka, fueling a viral controversy that’s dividing tennis fans. The drama stems from Sabalenka’s contentious comments after her French Open final loss to Coco Gauff on June 7, 2025, where she claimed Swiatek would have beaten Gauff had she reached the final—a remark Gauff and fans slammed as “classless.”
Swiatek’s vacation post, captioned “Finding peace after the storm,” was seen by some as a subtle jab at Sabalenka, who defeated Swiatek in the French Open semifinals, ending her 26-match Roland Garros win streak. Fans on X speculated that Swiatek’s serene family photos—featuring her relaxing with parents Tomasz and Dorota on a Mediterranean beach—were a pointed response to Sabalenka’s “disrespectful” press conference remarks. One X post fumed, “Iga’s living her best life while Aryna’s still throwing shade. Class vs. chaos.”
The feud traces back to their heated semifinal clash, where Swiatek criticized umpire Kader Nouni for allegedly favoring Sabalenka’s requests to check marks, calling it “unfair.” Sabalenka’s 7-6(1), 4-6, 6-0 victory was a statement, but her post-final claim about Swiatek’s hypothetical dominance over Gauff poured fuel on the fire. Swiatek’s fans rallied on X, with one user writing, “Aryna’s jealous of Iga’s legacy. Dragging her into this was low.”
As Swiatek’s vacation photos—showing her paddleboarding and enjoying family dinners—continue to rack up likes, the tennis world is abuzz with debate. Is this a calculated clapback or just a coincidence? Check out the stunning photos on Iga Swiatek’s Instagram and weigh in on this escalating rivalry. Will Sabalenka respond, or is the court the only place this drama will play out?
