Iga Świątek decided to make a big change. At the beginning of October, she broke up with her current coach, Tomasz Wiktorowski, and started looking for a new coach. The choice ultimately fell on Wim Fissette. We were the first to report on Sport.pl that he is the main candidate for this position.
This is what Fissette's wife writes about Świątek's decision. “The family is very proud”
Świątek announced her official decision on Thursday. – As you know, I am now preparing for the WTA Finals, but my perspective on my career is always long-term, never short-sighted… I have already mentioned many times that for me my career is a marathon, not a sprint, and I act, work and make decisions with this approach. I would like to add that I am looking forward to working with Wim. I see a very good approach and vision in him, and an additional advantage is his extensive experience at the highest level in tennis – she explained.
Fissette himself does not hide his satisfaction with starting a new cooperation. – Iga is a role model for many players thanks to the constant intensity with which she plays and her focus on her work. I am all the more excited about this cooperation, hoping that we will both improve and strive to fulfill our sports dreams – he said. Now his wife – Jasmien Clijsner – also spoke out.
The woman shared Iga Świątek's recording on InstaStories, where she talks about her decision. She commented on them eloquently. – Wim is the coach of the world's first Świątek. The family is very proud, she wrote.
This is Iga Świątek's new fan. Who is Jasmien Clijsner?
And who exactly is Jasmien Clijsner? In the past, she worked as a model for the agencies Models Office, Flag Models, Network Models and Chocmodels. Additionally, he holds a bachelor's degree in communication management from Kogeschool PXL and a master's degree in communication sciences from the Catholic University of Lueven. Today, she fulfills herself mainly as a mother. With Wim Fissette, she had two sons – Arthur and Luis. The older one is already trying his hand at tennis courts. He takes part in children's tournaments and is considered a great talent.
Clijsner herself is an active participant in her husband's life. She often goes to tennis tournaments with him and her sons, which she immortalizes on social media. There you will also find frames from many other family moments together. The couple, although they have known each other for years, got married only last year. He lives in Hasselt, Belgium.
