PRIS: Novak Djokovic created “incredible” history on Sunday when he captured a record-breaking 23rd men’s Grand Slam title, reinforcing his case to be crowned the greatest player of all time.
Novak Djokovic stood proudly at the pinnacle of men’s tennis – and then warned his rivals there is plenty more still to come.
Djokovic overcame a wobbly start on Court Philippe Chatrier to beat Ruud in straight sets, 7-6 (7/1), 6-3, 7-5, breaking the 22-Slam tie he shared with Rafael Nadal, the “King of Clay”, on the Spaniard’s favourite court.
Swiatek, the title holder, faces an unexpected hurdle in the final with the unseeded Czech having defied injuries and the odds to book her first Grand Slam final spot.
Third seed Djokovic ended the surprise run of Peruvian outsider Juan Pablo Varillas, winning 6-3, 6-2, 6-2, and has yet to drop a set through four matches.
Swiatek blitzed 80th-ranked Wang Xinyu of China 6-0, 6-0 on the back of 21 winners as the 22-year-old Pole took another step closer to becoming the first woman since Justine Henin in 2007 to win back-to-back titles at Roland Garros.
World number three Jessica Pegula's hopes of hoisting her maiden Grand Slam trophy ended in despair on Friday after a 6-1 6-3 defeat by Belgian Elise Mertens in the French Open third round.
Hemmed in between the French Open’s two showpiece arenas, Court No. 8 ranks among the smallest of the 18 clay courts at Roland Garros. On a sweltering Tuesday afternoon, the 350-seater venue was also among the loudest – courtesy of a smattering of flag-waving Chinese fans who tried their best to push Li Zheng, the world number 40, during her opening-round defeat.
