Her influence isn’t lost on her. Iga is a strong advocate for positive mental health, using her platform to highlight the importance of making mental health a priority. 

She’s also keen to use her platform to highlight support for those impacted by the war in Ukraine. In January 2023, Iga used her social presence to announce that she joined forces with UNICEF Poland to raise funds for children in war-torn Ukraine. She also auctioned off her US Open-winning gear and French Open shoes, with all proceeds going straight to UNICEF.

Iga Świątek’s influence both on and off the court is powerful. She’s used her strength as a tennis legend to amplify important voices and causes. That’s why she’s listed as a Change Maker for 2023.
