April 2019 Shot of the Month: Iga Swiatek
With Agnieszka Radwanska's retirement in the offseason, Poland may have found its new hot-shot queen.
Teeanger Iga Swiatek had a breakout run to her first career WTA final in Lugano in April, turning heads and hitting winners along the way, and her delicate drop shot from a semifinal victory earned your votes as April's Shot of the Month presented by Cambridge Global Payments.
In a near-perfect performance against Kristyna Pliskova, Swiatek was on song, needing just 54 minutes to advance to her first career championship match.
