Iga Swiatek was consecrated for the third time in women’s Roland Garros

In the Philippe Chatrier Court for the final of the women’s singles of Roland Garros this Saturday, Iga Swiatek signed again the history of tennis with his name by beating 6-2, 5-7 and 6-4 to Karolina Muchova in almost three hours and thus obtain his third title of the contest. At 22 years old, Swiatek’s career already has a glorious career. The world number one reached the final with great results from the start of the competition, but found one of the biggest challenges against the Czech tennis player. Shortly after the start of the match, the leader of the WTA world ranking managed to get 3-0 up, and without great opposition, won the first set comfortably 6-2. In the next, he again got a quick lead, but he was cavalier and did not see the reaction of his rival, who tied the set. With a different attitude to that of her previous opponents, Muchova redeemed herself from her early failures and went on to beat Swiatek 7-5.Although the Czech took advantage of the momentum to go up 2-0 in the last set, the world number one overcame the situation and, with remarkable determination, He went on to dominate 5-4. Finally, Muchova’s rebellious attitude faded until he gave up his third serve in the set and handed the victory to his rival. With her coronation this afternoon in France, Swiatek claimed her fourth Grand Slam at age 22 – three Roland Garros championships and one US Open – and projects a dominant future in women’s tennis. Tomorrow morning, Novak Djokovic will face Casper Ruud in the final in search of his third consecration in the contest that had him as champion in the 2016 and 2021 editions.
