Sabalenka Stuns Swiatek to Reach French Open 2025 Final

French Open 2025

Dates: 25 May-8 June Venue: Roland Garros

In a thrilling semifinal clash at Roland Garros, Aryna Sabalenka ended Iga Świątek’s 26-match winning streak at the French Open, securing her spot in the championship match with a hard-fought 7-6 (7-1), 4-6, 6-0 victory.



Match Highlights: Sabalenka vs. Świątek

World No. 1 Sabalenka came into the match as the slight favorite, despite Świątek’s dominance on clay. The Belarusian started strong, overpowering Świątek with her aggressive baseline play. However, the four-time French Open champion fought back in the second set, extending the match to a decider.

The final set was a masterclass from Sabalenka, who dismantled Świątek’s game in just 24 minutes, sealing her place in her first-ever Roland Garros final.

What’s Next for Sabalenka?

Sabalenka, a three-time Grand Slam champion (all on hard courts), will now face either Coco Gauff (2022 finalist) or French wildcard Lois Boisson in the final. A win would complete her career Grand Slam on a surface once considered her weakest.

Why This Victory Matters

Ends Świątek’s Roland Garros dominance (26 straight wins since 2022).

Sabalenka’s first French Open final after previous semi-final exits.

Sets up a potential historic title—her first on clay.

Key Stats & Reactions

Sabalenka: "Iga is the toughest opponent here, so this win means everything. But the job isn’t done yet."

Świątek: Struggled with uncharacteristic errors, raising questions about her form heading into Wimbledon.

French Open 2025 Final Preview

If Gauff advances, it would be a rematch of last year’s intense battles. If Boisson pulls off an upset, she’d be the first wildcard to reach a Grand Slam final in over a decade.
