Almost without messing up. Iga Swiatek managed to get one out of their temper Coconut Gauff that although little by little she is recovering her best level, no one can cough up the current number one. The Pole defeated the virtual number two in a somewhat quick match (just over an hour and a half) by 6-2 and 6-4 in what for many was going to be an early final of Roland Garros. A rival is already waiting, who will emerge from the duel between Paolini and Andreeva.
The numbers of Swiatek in the beaten sand Paris they are incredible. The tennis player already has a total of twenty consecutive victories in Roland Garros. They have not lost since the 2021 quarterfinals. Not only that, this season in the clay campaign they have had no rival. Although it must be said, in the second round he had a pretty bad time against Naomi Osaka.
Everything has changed since then. Intractable, just like today. The Pole dominated the first set from the beginning, when she snatched the serve from Coconut Gauff. The American was going to react in the second, after complaining to the referee about an interruption that she said had disturbed her, causing her to shed tears on the court. But she did not lose concentration and ended up snatching the Pole’s serve for the first time to go up 3-1.
However, Swiatek I wasn’t going to let him breathe a single moment longer. He managed to react and came back with four games in a row, leaving the game practically ready for judgment.
