Iga Swiatek’s team may be heading for another big change, and this time it could come very soon. Reports say the Polish star is likely to part ways with her current coach Wim Fissette and bring in Piotr Wozniacki. This update comes just days after her early exit at the 2026 Miami Open, where she lost in the second round despite starting strong.The report is getting attention because it comes from the same source that earlier predicted her split with Tomasz Wiktorowski and the hiring of Fissette. That past claim turned out to be correct. Still, Swiatek has not confirmed anything yet, and there is no official statement from her team so far.
Iga Swiatek struggles continue as reports link her to Piotr Wozniacki after Wim Fissette partnership
Swiatek’s recent loss in Miami raised a lot of questions about her current form. She got a first-round bye and then faced Magda Linette in the second round. The match started well for her. She won the first set 6-1 and looked in control. But things changed quickly. Linette came back strong and won the next two sets 7-5, 6-3 to pull off a surprise win.After the match, Swiatek spoke honestly about how she has been feeling on court. In an interview with Polish media, she said, “I feel like I have expectations of myself that I can’t fulfil. I need to let go of them. I’m not good enough to have any expectations. Everybody knows I have a game to win tournaments. I just haven’t been showing that.”She also added, “I’m kind of facing things that I never faced because I never felt things that intensely on court. I mean, I did, but I was much younger, and it felt like a normal process. Now it doesn’t.”Wim Fissette joined her team in October 2024. Since then, Swiatek has won three titles, including Wimbledon last year. But overall, her results have not been steady. There have been strong moments, but also some unexpected losses like the one in Miami.Now, the name Piotr Wozniacki is coming up as a possible replacement. He is best known for coaching his daughter Caroline Wozniacki, who reached world No. 1 and won the Australian Open in 2018. His experience at the top level makes this possible move interesting, especially at a time when Swiatek is trying to regain confidence.At the same time, her sports psychologist, Daria Abramowicz, is also being discussed by critics. Some have questioned her methods, but both she and Swiatek have supported their working relationship in the past.For now, everything remains unconfirmed. But with Swiatek openly talking about her struggles, the coming weeks could be very important for her team and her direction.
