Now this is officially a fortnight Iga Swiatek will remember for-evermore.
The world No. 1 revealed that she finally saw Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour, the noted Swiftie confirming her attendance on social media Friday.
“I’m dead 🥺” Swiatek wrote alongside a teary-eyed selfie. “Yes, I cried many times during the show. Yes, it was incredible. You are amazing @taylorswift13 🫶🏼🫶🏼”

The down bad 23-year-old is fresh out the slammer from winning her fifth Grand Slam title at Roland Garros, creating the alchemy to win a third straight title in Paris with the loss of just one set.
Last month, she shared some extensive thoughts on Swift’s latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, in the midst of what would become a gorgeous run through the Mutua Madrid Open, Internazionali BNL d’Italia, and RG.
“I like it,” said Swiatek, who famously loves Swift’s 2020 albums *folklore* and *evermore*. “I would say there are, like, seven songs that I really like. I made a playlist of all of them. I know Taylor wouldn’t approve of me listening to only some of them, but I have my picks.”

Asked to share her personal TTPD playlist, Swiatek stumbled through some of the then-just-released titles and hilariously implored the Swifties not to come for her.
“Now I’m going to get hate that I don’t remember titles and I’m not a real Swiftie,” she sighed before adjusting her gaze straight to camera. “I’m sorry, guys. I’m not the best kind of Swiftie, but… Don’t judge me!”
After a spring that left her answering “Who’s Afraid of Little Old Me?” with “You should be,” Swiatek will kick off a cruel summer by taking a secret weapon onto the grass: a personal note from Swift herself, seemingly congratulating her on her wildly successful 2024 season—on her personal stationary!
For the tour’s preeminent new romantic, that’s definitely going into the manuscript.
