Iga Swiatek<\/a>\u00a0isn\u2019t going through her best sporting moment and arrives at the Caja M\u00e1gica as the fourth-ranked player on the women\u2019s tour.<\/p>\n Still, she\u2019s landed in the Spanish capital with a positive attitude and will be aiming for her first title at this prestigious tournament.<\/p>\n The former world number one, who will enter the fray on Thursday, April 23rd, in the second round against the winner of the match between Daria Kasatkina<\/a> and a qualifier, might have some free time to explore the city.<\/p>\n Flashscore asked her about this, wanting to know what the Polish star does in Madrid when she\u2019s not playing tennis.<\/p>\n “I always do a little shopping, you know, but not just to big, fancy stores – more like typical Madrid stores,” she explained.<\/p>\n “And good food: pulpo (octopus), gambas (prawns), croquettes… But not too (much) fat, obviously, so I need to balance that, and good coffee,” she added.<\/p>\n “Actually, my friends came with me this year, so I\u2019ll be sightseeing with them too, and, well, it\u2019s always fun here, a lot of stuff to do,” she concluded.<\/p>\n
