Iga Swiatek from Poland may be the world's second-best tennis player on the women's side.
However, this does not give her a free pass to express her opinion about the coffee in Melbourne, where the world number two is currently playing the year's first Grand Slam tournament, the Australian Open.
I have to say that I found better coffee places in Sydney, said Swiatek in her post-match interview after beating Slovakian Rebecca Sramkova in straight sets, 6–0, 6–2 on Thursday.
The audience in the arena, which had just cheered for her victory, quickly turned against her and started booing. Coffee is a sacred thing in Australia, and even more so when it's the best. Swiatek then made sure to apologize and referred to not having done "sufficient research".
Sorry for my answer.
In the third round, she will face British Emma Raducanu, who beat Amanda Anisimova from the USA with the scores 6–3, 7–5.
