Iga Swiatek reigns at French Open again after swatting Coco Gauff aside

Top seed Iga Swiatek won her second French Open title after proving too good for the 18-year-old American Coco Gauff, winning 6-1, 6-3 at Roland Garros.

Swiatek, the world No 1, dominated the match from the outset, racing into a 4-0 lead and taking the first set in just 32 minutes.

The beginning of the second set was a far more competitive affair, Gauff breaking her opponent immediately and then holding to lead 2-0.

But the Pole – who first won the tournament in 2020 – showed her class to break back, knocking the stuffing out of Gauff and surging to glory, in what was a remarkable 35th consecutive victory.
