Lead

[edit]

Early life and background

[edit]

Junior career

[edit]
  • "and won back-to-back low-level Grade 4 titles in April and May while still 13 years old." - at age 13.
  • "She followed this up with her best junior title to date at the Grade 1 Canadian Open Junior Championships, defeating Olga Danilović in the final." - perhaps clarify this was in the singles?
  • "Świątek had a strong first half of 2017. She won both the singles and doubles titles at the Grade 1 Traralgon Junior International. Although she lost her opening round match at the Australian Open, she partnered with compatriot Maja Chwalińska to make her first final in a Grand Slam event, finishing runner-up in doubles to the North American team of Bianca Andreescu and Carson Branstine." - all of this portion of text will need verifying with reliable sources
  • "after which she had right ankle surgery that kept her out for seven months." - WTA Tennis does not mention which ankle she had surgery on just that she had ankle surgery
  • "She returned to the junior tour at the French Open after a full year absence and reached the semifinals in singles," - {[xt|one-year}}
  • "She returned to the junior tour at the French Open after a full year absence and reached the semifinals in singles, losing to Caty McNally." - sentence needs verifying with a reliable source
  • "she did not drop another set during the rest of the tournament and won the championship for her only junior Grand Slam singles title." - sentence will need verifying with a reliable citation

2016–18: Undefeated in seven ITF finals

[edit]
  • "Świątek moved up to higher-level ITF events that spring." - avoid using seasons per MOS:SEASON
  • "After a $25K title in April, Świątek moved up to higher-level ITF events that spring. Following her junior Wimbledon title in July, she skipped the junior US Open to stay in Europe. During the two weeks of the US Open, she won back-to-back $60K titles at the NEK Ladies Open in Hungary and the Montreux Ladies Open in Switzerland. - this portion of text is unverified and needs to be not unverified
  • "she defeated top seed and world No. 120 Mariana Duque-Mariño." - no mention that Marino was top seed or the World No. 120

2019: First WTA final, top 50 debut

[edit]
  • "She then defeated No. 82 Ana Bogdan in three sets in her debut match to reach the second round." - WTA Tennis does not mention Bogdan was world No. 82
    • It does. Apparently, they split the "2019 page" in half right in the middle of the Australian Open for some reason (probably a mistake in the website setup). If you click the "show more", the match with Bogdan appears. Sportsfan77777 (talk) 10:44, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Wikilink upset to Upset (competition) on the first mention only
  • "Moreover, an incredible cross-court forehand drop shot she hit against Kristýna Plíšková in the semifinal was voted the 2019 WTA Shot of the Year." - "incredible" is a non-neutral word
  • Wikilink forehand and clay court for non-Tennis readers
  • "With the runner-up, she also made her debut in the top 100 while still 17 years old." - WTA Tennis makes no mention of her age in the cited source for this sentence
  • "Świątek closed out her clay court season with a fourth round appearance at the French Open in her second major." - Think a direct use of a reliable source will help matters here
  • "She upset No. 16 Wang Qiang in the second round for her first top 20 victory before losing to defending champion Simona Halep." - no mention of a first top 20 victory in both sources used to verify this statement
  • "losing her opening match at Wimbledon and her second match at the US Open." - repetition of "match"
  • "During the event, she upset No. 18 Caroline Wozniacki before losing to No. 2 Naomi Osaka." - no mention of Wozniacki or Osaka's world rankings or Swiatek's loss to Osaka in the Canadian Open. Another source is needed to verify all this information

2020: French Open champion, top 20 debut

[edit]
  • "she defeated 2019 runner-up and world No. 19 Markéta Vondroušová in the opening round." - no mention of Vondrousova's world ranking
  • "Her biggest upset was a victory in the fourth round over top seed and world No. 2 Simona Halep, who was on a 17-match win streak and was also the heavy favourite to win the title.[30]" - needs another source to verify all this text
  • "She also became the youngest singles champion at the tournament since Rafael Nadal in 2005 and the youngest women's singles champion since Monica Seles in 1992." - repetition of "champion"

Junior competitions

[edit]

Billie Jean King Cup

[edit]
  • "a play-off tie against one of the other round robin group winners, and then another play-off tie as part of the separate World Group II Play-off round." - repetition of "tie"
  • "Świątek won her only singles match in 2018." - against whom?
  • "While she only won one of her three singles matches in 2019, she won both of her doubles matches while partnering with Alicja Rosolska." - repetition of "matches"
