Tough on the training ground? Why is tennis number one Iga Świątek taping her mouth?

World number one Iga Świąteková drew attention to herself last week when she practiced with her mouth taped. The unconventional stunt was immediately noticed by the media, who showered the young Grand Slam champion with countless questions. During the tournament in Montreal, the Polish player explained that the purpose was to improve her endurance, as breathing only through the nose is more difficult. But what is it really like and what benefits does breathing through the nose bring to the human body?
