Eurosport experts Tim Henman and Chris Evert have given their views on Iga Swiatek's masterclass in beating Coco Gauff to clinch her second French Open crown. The all-conquering world No. 1 followed up her 2020 triumph at Roland-Garros in style after beating the prodigiously-talented American in straight sets, 6-1 6-3, on Saturday afternoon.
Coco Gauff is looking to cement a rivalry with Iga Swiatek after losing to the Pole in the final of the French Open, and Eurosport expert Chris Evert feels the defeat will be a huge learning curve for the teenager. Swiatek has been peerless for months, winning tournament after tournament, and she arrived in Paris as the overwhelming favourite. Ad/> The bookmakers were proven correct, as Swiatek swatted away all who stood in her way and brushed aside the challenge of Gauff to secure her second Grand Slam title.
Chris Evert feels the major doubt for Rafael Nadal is whether his body will stand up to one more match at the French Open. The 13-time Roland-Garros champion advanced to the final after Alexander Zverev retired at the end of the second set on account of an ankle injury. Ad/> The match had gone three hours for not even two sets, and Nadal looked fatigued.
Eurosport expert Chris Evert has given her immediate reaction to the heartbreaking scenes as Alexander Zverev was forced to retire injured against Rafael Nadal. Nadal progressed to the final at Roland-Garros, but with the match having been in the balance against Zverev at 7-6(2) 6-6 when the German had to retire hurt following a nasty ankle injury. Ad/> Zverev cried out in agony after going over on his right ankle, and the severity of the injury was immediately clear.
Eurosport's Chris Evert has said that she does not agree with the decisions made that have led to a gender imbalance for the French Open's night matches. When tournament director Amelie Mauresmo was originally asked why women had only featured in one of the 10 night-match slots, she replied: «In this era that we are in, I don't feel bad or unfair — as a woman and former women's player — saying that right now you have more appeal in general, for the men's matches. Ad/> »My goal when I was doing the schedule every day was to try and see, from the first round when the draw came out, which women's match I could put there, honestly.
Eurosport expert Chris Evert has given her reaction to Coco Gauff's strong «end gun violence» message she wrote on a camera lens at the French Open. Gauff was at her sparkling best as she defeated Martina Trevisan 6-3 6-1 in their semi-final on Thursday afternoon to set up a Roland-Garros final with world No. 1 Iga Swiatek.
Mats Wilander has described Iga Swiatek as a «machine» and feels the French Open is hers for the taking, while Chris Evert has never seen the Pole so focused. Swiatek wrapped up her 34th win on the spin to beat Daria Kasatkina 6-2 6-1 to secure her place in the final of the French Open. Ad/> Big-game nerves are unlikely to be a major issue for Swiatek, as she already has a French Open title to her name.
Iga Swiatek continued her march toward a second French Open title in three years when she demolished Russian Daria Kasatkina 6-2, 6-1 to reach the final and extend her winning streak to 34 matches.
