Are you guys aware that world number two Iga Swiatek and world number one Aryna Sabalenka are left alone on a desert island without food? Swiatek was asked whom she would pick to be lost in the desert. The Poland star didn't hesitate a bit to name Aryna Sabalenka while calling her "Tiger," who will hunt for food for her.
"Okay, I’m gonna choose Aryna because if she’s gonna be like a tiger, she’s gonna probably hunt for some food, and we’ll be safe with that," Iga Swiatek said in a video.
Meanwhile, Aryna Sabalenka, who has a tiger tattoo on her left hand, liked the idea of being a tiger in a desert and agreed to bring food for the Polish star. Humorously, Sabalenka further said that if she doesn't get food, then she will hunt Swiatek.
This funny banter between the top WTA stars has widely been shared on social media, which showcases that they are good friends after being great rivals on the court. This gesture of tennis stars showcases the respect they carry for each other apart from their tennis rivalry.
Reporter: “There is a recent social media video, I don't know if you saw, where players were asked if they had to pick another player to get stuck in the desert with? The Tiger?”
Aryna Sabalenka: “I got you. I got you, Iga. We're gonna survive. I'm gonna bring you food. Don't worry. Listen, it could go either way. If there wouldn't be food, I would go for her probably, you know. So it's kinda like good and bad option for her. I'll do my best to do everything so we are not hungry and we're safe."
