Iga Świątek "happy" she has time to sightsee after 54-minute win at French Open

Iga Świątek revealed she was “pretty happy” with her 54-minute victory in the first round of the French Open.

The Polish tennis star cruised past Ukraine’s Lesia Tsurenko 6-2, 6-0, completing her rout in under an hour.

In her post match interview, Świątek revealed she would be going sightseeing in Paris after her dominant win.

“I’m pretty happy that I finished early,” she said. “I have some media – wow, exciting stuff.

“Then maybe we’ll go somewhere in Paris to see something. You will see on my Insta story if you’re interested.”

Świątek has now won 29 matches in a row, a streak that stretches back to the Qatar Open in February and includes four WTA 1000 titles.

If the 20-year-old wins the French Open, she will become the first player to win more than five titles in a single season since Serena Williams earned seven in 2014.

It will be the second Grand Slam of her career – Świątek was the French Open champion in 2020.
