Swiatek wins 2020 fan favorite award

Published Dec 12, 2020

With the 2020 season wrapped, the WTA released the winners of the annual year-end awards and Iga Swiatek cleaned up.

The 19-year-old Pole won Most Improved and Fan Favorite, while her coach Piotr Sierzputowski won Coach of the Year.

Fan favorite really meant a lot as Swiatek tweeted: "This is soooo cool. It means a lot because it seems that you - fans - value what I do and simply like me. And just so you know...I appreciate it. Thank you!"

Swiatek is the second Pole to earn the honor after Agnieszka Radwanska won it six times. She certainly comes off as likable:

The teen started the season ranked No. 49 and after winning her maiden Grand Slam title in Paris without the loss of a set, she jumped inside of the Top 20.
