Overview

• Following a three-set second-round victory over Suzan Lamens, a Polish reporter asked Swiatek if she would wear beads like Naomi Osaka, drawing her reply, “What kind of question is that? … No. What’s going on?”
• The exchange occurred during the Polish-language portion of the press conference, with Tennis World USA identifying the journalist as Tomek Moczerniuk.
• A clip widely shared on social media shows the reporter standing and leaving the room as she reacted, as reported by The Sun and Tennis World USA, and users criticized the question.
• Coverage links the moment to Swiatek’s previously voiced frustrations with Polish media scrutiny of her team, including focus on psychologist Daria Abramowicz.
• Swiatek moved into the third round in New York and is scheduled to face Anna Kalinskaya next, with no official response from tournament organizers reported.
