Roland Garros, Paolini surrenders in the final: Swiatek wins in 2 sets

The Pole won in 2 sets (6-2, 6-1) in just over an hour of play

ROME – Jasmine Paolini’s dream at Roland Garros in Paris is shattered in the final. In her first final match of a Slam, the Italian tennis player lost against Iga Swiatek, number 1 in the world, who lifts her fourth Parisian trophy, the third in a row, and the fifth of a Major. The Pole won in 2 sets (6-2, 6-1) in just over an hour of play.
On Monday Paolini will be in seventh place in the WTA rankings, entering the Top 10 for the first time world. Italy will thus find a player among the top 10 in the world 8 years after the last time, with Francesca Schiavone, and it will be a historic first time for Italy, which had never had a player in the men’s Top 10 and a player in the women’s Top 10.
