Svitolina, with no options in the opening set, was two points away from g a tie on the scoreboard, with a 5-4 and deuce. She would lose the next three games

For the fifth time in her career, the Pole is among the four best at the French Open, where she has lifted the trophy in four of the last five editions.

Her sequence of 26 triumphs on the Bois de Boulogne courts equals the longest streak of the century in a major, which was held by Serena Williams (US Open 2012 to 2015).

Iga's current ranking (fifth in the world) means that she will face Sabalenka, the top seed, earlier than expected.
