TEXTO WTA
World No.1 Iga Swiatek capped off her flawless clay-court season Saturday with her second Grand Slam title, defeating No.18 seed Coco Gauff 6-1, 6-3 to win the Roland Garros singles crown.
Two years ago, Swiatek shocked the field by winning her first Roland Garros title as an unseeded teenager. This time, Swiatek took her second French Open title by winning her 35th consecutive match, tying Venus Williams for the best winning streak this century.
«I’m more aware of how it is to win a Grand Slam and what it takes and how every puzzle has to come together and basically every aspect of the game has to work,» Swiatek said, comparing her new title to the one she clinched in 2020.
«With that awareness, I was even more happy and even more proud of myself, because in 2020 it was all, I just felt that I’m lucky, you know. This time I felt like I really did the work.»
