In French Open Tennis, World No. 1 and top seed Iga Swiatek of Poland won the Women's Singles crown.
She defended her title against unseeded Czech Karolina Muchova 6-2, 5-7, 6-4.
This is her third French title in just 5 years.
Poland’s Iga Swiatek became the first woman since 2007 to win back-to-back French Open titles.
The 22-year-old Swiatek is just the third woman in the Open era to win each of her first four Grand Slam finals.
Swiatek, the world number 1, is also the youngest woman to claim back-to-back French Open titles since Monica Seles in the early 1990s.
Swiatek has now been at the top of the WTA rankings for more than a year and has accumulated two French Open (2020, 2022) and one US Open (2022) titles in her fledgling career.
