Swiatek returns to French Open final
Iga Swiatek advanced to her third straight French Open final by defeating Coco Gauff 6-2, 6-4, extending her winning streak at Roland Garros to 20 matches. The world number one will face first-time Grand Slam finalist Jasmine Paolini, who cruised past 17-year-old Mirra Andreeva 6-3, 6-1. Andreeva’s remarkable run ended in tears. Meanwhile, Novak Djokovic underwent surgery on his injured right knee and said the operation “went well,” though his Wimbledon participation remains uncertain. Photo: AFP
