Polish tennis player Iga Swiatek, the eighth seed at Wimbledon 2025, has drawn attention not only for her performance but also for her unusual favorite childhood meal: pasta with strawberries. After her victory against Danielle Collins, Swiatek shared this unique food combination with the crowd, describing it as a great dish she enjoyed as a child. The revelation sparked widespread discussion across sports media and social platforms, with some defending the dish as a Polish staple and others expressing surprise or amusement. Italian player Flavio Cobolli commented on the unusual pairing, wishing Swiatek good luck upon her return to Italy. The dish has since become a talking point among tennis fans and commentators during the Wimbledon tournament.
