Swiatek seeks 4th french title

PARIS, France — Iga Swiatek will play first-time Grand Slam finalist Jasmine Paolini as she goes in search of a third successive French Open title, with 17-year-old Mirra Andreeva’s remarkable run ending in tears on Thursday.

Her career win-loss record at Roland Garros stands at a staggering 34-2, and she has barely broken sweat since saving a match point against Naomi Osaka in the second round. Swiatek though responded the very next game and won four in a row, eventually clinching victory on her fourth match point. Paolini will be the unexpected challenger to Swiatek’s crown on Saturday after the 28-year-old Italian swept past Andreeva 6-3, 6-1.

“I learned I think a little bit later than other players, to dream is the most important thing in sport and in life,” said Paolini.BDO, SM launch Kabayan Tuesday para sa overseas Filipino families with Piolo PascualThinking of smarter buys?
