Iga Swiatek of Poland won her third French Open title on Saturday, defeating American Coco Gauff 6-1, 6-3 in the final. Swiatek, who is ranked No. 1 in the world, is the youngest player to win three French Open titles since Rafael Nadal in 2008. She is also the first player to win three consecutive Grand Slam titles since Serena Williams in 2014-15.
Swiatek's victory was dominant, as she never faced a break point in the match. She won 22 of 27 points at the net and broke Gauff's serve five times.
Swiatek's victory is a major boost for her confidence as she heads into the Wimbledon Championships next month. She is the favorite to win the title, and a victory there would put her in contention to be the year-end No. 1 player.
