Though Swiatek might still be disappointed with her Australian Open defeat, she has resumed her training and seems to be going all out this time. She gave fans a look into her intense training schedule via her Instagram stories.

After two hours and 35 minutes of power-packed tennis, Madison Keys defeated Iga Swiatek 5-7, 6-1, 7-6(8) in the 2025 Australian Open semifinal. During the post-match press conference, Swiatek discussed the happenings of the match and touched upon her miserable second set.
"It was tight, you know, from the beginning. And the second set for sure, like, it was something that I just wanted to forget about and get back to my game, you know?" Swiatek said.
The World No. 2 felt that she gave it her all on the court.
"So I would say, yeah, this first set and third set where I feel like I was playing, you know, my tennis," she continued. "Maybe, okay, it wasn't like a 100% control as on previous matches. Still, I think I played good, but she played better. And so I would say like I did everything I could so I woudn't say like I flopped or that I should have won."
Swiatek will compete at the 2025 Qatar TotalEnergies Open next, where she will be the second seed. Aryna Sabalenka, Coco Gauff, Jasmine Paolini, Elena Rybakina, and others will also join her. The tournament will begin on February 9.
