Iga Swiatek Wins Third French Open Title | #iga_swiatek #frenchopen #tennis #world_number_1 #youngest_french_open_champion
Iga Swiatek won her third French Open title on Saturday, defeating American Coco Gauff in straight sets. The 21-year-old Swiatek is now the world number one and the youngest player to win the French Open since Rafael Nadal in 2005.
Swiatek, who is from Poland, has been in dominant form this year. She has won 28 consecutive matches, the longest winning streak on the WTA Tour since Serena Williams in 2013.
Swiatek's victory on Saturday was her 63rd win of the season, which is the most by any player on the WTA Tour. She has also won five titles this year, including the Australian Open and the Italian Open.
Swiatek is now considered to be one of the favorites to win Wimbledon later this year. She is the first Polish player to win the French Open and she is only the second Polish player to win a Grand Slam singles title, after Agnieszka Radwanska won Wimbledon in 2012.
