Swiatek Dominates Gauff to Reach French Open Final
Straight-Sets Victory Extends Winning Streak
Iga Swiatek continued her reign of dominance over Coco Gauff with a commanding 6-2 6-4 victory in the semi-finals of the French Open on Thursday. The victory sends Swiatek to her fourth French Open final, where she will face the winner of the other semi-final between Daria Kasatkina and Martina Trevisan.
A Masterclass in Clay-Court Tennis
Swiatek, the world No. 1, was in imperious form throughout the match, dictating play from the baseline and forcing Gauff into uncharacteristic errors. The Pole's powerful forehand was particularly effective, as she repeatedly found the corners of the court with precision.
Gauff, who had been in excellent form throughout the tournament, struggled to find her rhythm against Swiatek's relentless pressure. The American was able to produce some moments of brilliance, but she was ultimately unable to match the consistency and firepower of her opponent.
Conclusion
Swiatek's victory over Gauff underlined her status as the undisputed queen of clay-court tennis. The Pole is now on the verge of securing a historic third consecutive French Open title, a feat that would cement her place among the all-time greats of the sport.
