On Saturday afternoon, the eighth-seeded Iga Swiatek picked up a significant victory over her rival Danielle Collins in the third round of Wimbledon. Swiatek beat Collins in straight sets: 6-2, 6-3. The decisive victory served as revenge for Swiatek<\/a>, after Collins trolled her earlier in the season. <\/p>\n

As Swiatek carefully navigates her way through a tricky draw on her least-favorite surface, the five-time Grand Slam champion is slowly starting to relax and show off her amazing personality after each victory.<\/p>\n

After the win on Saturday, Swiatek made her way to the Tennis Channel studio set up at SW19 for a six-minute interview. Swiatek answered several fun questions, including who would be in her “dream Royal Box” during a match at Wimbledon.<\/p>\n

At 3:35 in the video<\/a>, Swiatek thoughtfully answered the question, “Maybe, Prince William. Um, Taylor Swift.” <\/p>\n

Before Swiatek could finish answering the question, she was asked if Swift was still above fellow pop star Dua Lipa on her list. She took a full second before an endearingly awkward response, “Yeah. Sorry.”<\/p>\n

She explained, “But, I mean, Taylor’s legacy is a bit bigger now. But we don’t know what Dua’s going to do next year. So, I’m rooting for her as well.”<\/p>\n

It is tough to rank your favorite artists on the fly on international television, but Swiatek handled the moment perfectly. <\/p>\n

Swiatek will face the 23-seed Clara Tauson in the fourth round tomorrow, July 7. Swiatek is 2-0 against Tauson on the WTA Tour.<\/p>\n
