From bashful Rafael Nadal fan to the hard rock of Led Zeppelin and Guns N' Roses to the undisputed queen of women's tennis, Iga Swiatek has come a long way. Having captured a first major at the pandemic-hit and delayed French Open in October 2020, Swiatek added a second at Roland Garros on Saturday.
Iga Swiatek cruised past teen star Coco Gauff with a 6-1, 6-3 win in the French Open 2022 women's singles final to claim her second Roland Garros title on Saturday. The Pole now has 35 wins on the trot, matching Venus Williams' record for the longest winning streak by a women's player in the 21st century. Venus Williams won five WTA titles and the Olympic gold medal during her unbeaten run at the start of the century, which no one has improved on since.
Iga Świątek has won the 2022 French Open and equalled Venus Williams’ record for the longest women’s winning streak of this millennium.
World number one Iga Swiatek puts her 32-match unbeaten run on the line in the French Open quarter-finals on Wednesday against Jessica Pegula. If she goes on to win Saturday's final, she would equal Venus Williams' longest run by a women's player in the 21st century. Here is a look at how her current run compares to the other winning streaks of more than 30 matches since 2000:
Novak Djokovic renews his 16-year rivalry with Rafael Nadal at the French Open on Tuesday with a semi-final spot at stake and where victory for the world number one could end the 13-time champion's Roland Garros career. Nadal, who turns 36 on Friday, puts his record of 109 wins and just three losses in Paris since his title-winning debut in 2005 on the line against the defending champion.
PARIS — Rafael Nadal is used to overcoming adversity. His entire year has been anchored around it — whether it's his chronic foot injury, a rib fracture or his own Uncle Toni attempting to mastermind his downfall.
World number one Iga Swiatek faces rising Chinese star Zheng Qinwen for a place in the French Open quarter-finals on Monday, while Daniil Medvedev and Stefanos Tsitsipas continue their campaigns in the men's draw.
World number two Daniil Medvedev and 2021 runner-up Stefanos Tsitsipas target the French Open last 16 on Saturday while untroubled women's top seed Iga Swiatek eyes a 31st successive win. Medvedev and Tsitsipas are seeded to meet in the semi-finals. So far, Medvedev has looked the most likely to reach that stage, dropping just 16 games in two straight-sets wins.
