TENNIS STAR Iga Swiatek has baffled fans after training with TAPE over her mouth – but one believes they know the reason why.
The 22-year-old World No1 had people wondering after she was spotted preparing for the Canadian Open.
Pictures released from her training sessions ahead of the showpiece showed the Pole had tape over her mouth as she swung her racket.
Swiatek then took it off at the end of the practice – but it left fans asking online what the benefits of the strange manoeuvre was.
One fan tweeted that they were “very intrigued/confused by this” as another simply replied asking: “What?”
