Polish Captain Agnieszka Radwanska, nicknamed “The Ninja” during her career because of her ability to pull of mind-bending hot shots, weighed in as well, telling Swiatek that bigger and better things could happen if she continues to push the envelope.
“For sure that was a good one,” she said, adding: “But you cannot really say the best because you want to do even better, right?”
Swiatek’s reply?
“Always”
Poland defeated Kazakshtan 4-1, as Swiatek and Hubert Hurkacz defeated Lomakin and Kulambayeva 6-3, 6-4.
Poland will face Switzerland with first place in Group B on the line, beginning on Monday in Brisbane.
