ROME: This is just what Novak Djokovic needed a week before the French Open.
ROME (AP) — This is just what Novak Djokovic needed a week before the French Open.
Ons Jabeur will face Iga Swiatek in the Italian Open final after winning Saturday's thrilling last four clash with Daria Kasatkina 6-4, 1-6, 7-5. Tunisia's Jabeur became the first Arab or African player to claim a WTA 1000 title with her stunning victory in Madrid, and now she has the chance to make more history against Swiatek after another glorious comeback win on centre court in Rome. Having won the first set in fairly comfortable fashion world number seven Jabeur was clattered from pillar to post by unseeded Russian Kasatkina.
Iga Swiatek cruised into the final of the Italian Open on Saturday after crushing Aryna Sabalenka in straight sets 6-2, 6-1 to put her one game from a fifth straight tournament win. World number one Swiatek swatted Sabalenka aside in one hour, 16 minutes in Rome to claim her 27th win on the bounce, a tally last reached by Serena Williams in 2015. Pole Swiatek is the reigning champion in Rome and favourite for the French Open later this month, a fact underlined by the way she dealt with her opponent.
