.
(FRANCE TELEVISIONS)
The Pole offered herself a fourth title at Porte d’Auteuil, the third in a row, on Saturday, by sweeping away the Italian Jasmine Paolini in one hour and eight minutes (6-2, 6-1).
This time she didn’t tremble. After a coronation in three sets and in 2h46 a year earlier against Karolina Muchova (6-2, 5-7, 6-4), Iga Swiatek set the record straight to offer herself a fourth title at Roland-Garros , Saturday June 8. A final success 6-2, 6-1 in 1h08 against Jasmine Paolini, more similar to her first two Porte d’Auteuil (6-4, 6-1 against Sofia Kenin in 2020 and 6-1, 6-3 against Coco Gauff in 2022) which reinforces its domination over Parisian ocher.
The Italian only competed at the start of the match against the queen of the venue, even breaking the first to take the lead at 2-1. An outrage for the now four-time winner of the Suzanne-Lenglen Cup, whose response was brutal. Ten consecutive games won later, Iga Swiatek was only one unit away from her new coronation (6-2, 5-0). The world number 1 was therefore only upset in the second round by Naomi Osaka, against whom she had to save a match point, before going on for the rest of the tournament.
