Iga Swiatek is given extra security protection at the Miami Open after being harassed, report says

Iga Swiatek was given extra security protection at the Miami Open after being verbally attacked during a practice session by a man who had sent the five-time Grand Slam champion harassing messages via social media, BBC Sport reported Wednesday, citing representatives for the player. The episode comes a little more than a month after a stalker was removed from a match being played by 2021 U.S. Open champion Emma Raducanu in Dubai. Spokespeople for the Miami Open and the WTA Tour would not confirm exactly what happened with Swiatek at the hard-court tournament that finishes this weekend.
