No. 1-ranked Aryna Sabalenka defeated Iga Swiatek in a thrilling semifinal match at the French Open, ending Swiatek’s 26-match winning streak at the tournament with a score of 7-6 (1), 4-6, 6-0, and reaching her first final in Paris. This victory prevented Swiatek from achieving her fourth consecutive title at the clay-court Grand Slam since 1968. Sabalenka will compete for her fourth major title against either No. 2 Coco Gauff or 361st-ranked Lois Boisson in the final on Saturday.
