Tennis fans expressed excitement as Iga Swiatek sported a ‘Bonjour, Paris’ cap ahead of the Stuttgart Open. Swiatek will be in Paris for the 2025 French Open, vying to defend her title.
Iga Swiatek entered the 2024 season as the World No. 1 and bagged titles at the Qatar Open, Indian Wells Open, Madrid Open and Italian Open to take the Roland Garros court as the top seed. Her French Open campaign was for the record books as she outpaced formidable players like Naomi Osaka, Coco Gauff and Jasmine Paolini to take her third consecutive title. This made her only the third player in history after Monica Seles and Justine Henin to achieve this feat.
En route to the 2025 edition of the clay court tournament in Paris, Swiatek brought excitement to the fans as she sported a blue cap with ‘Bonjour, Paris’ in white lettering during the Stuttgart Open training, as posted by WTA’s official X handle.
