The No. 1 ranked player in the world showcased her dominance in Paris as World No. 1 Iga Swiatek continued her winning streak to 20 matches at the French Open. She secured a 6-2, 6-4 victory over Coco Gauff in the semifinals. Swiatek is set to face Jasmine Paolini in the final, who defeated Mirra Andreeva in straight sets to become the first Italian woman to reach a Grand Slam final in almost nine years.

Swiatek, the two-time defending French Open singles champion, has only dropped one set on her way to the final. She is aiming to become the third woman in the Open Era, after Monica Seles (1990-92) and Justine Henin (2005-07), to win the French Open three consecutive years. A victory in the final on Saturday would also see her join the ranks of Henin (4), Steffi Graf (6), and Chris Evert (7) as the only women to win the singles title at Roland Garros four times. At just 23 years old, she would be the youngest to achieve this milestone.

The final is scheduled to take place on Saturday, June 8 at approximately 9 a.m. ET at Court Philippe-Chatrier in Roland Garros, Paris, France. Viewers can catch the action on NBC and Tennis Channel, with streaming options available on Peacock, Fubo, DirecTV, and through VPN services.
