Gauff and Siniakova beat Italians Sara Errani and Jasmine Paolini 7-6 (7-5) 6-3 in just under two hours on Court Philippe-Chatrier, securing Gauff a first doubles trophy at a grand slam.

CNN —Iga Świątek marched into her fourth French Open final with an impressive 6-2 6-4 victory against American Coco Gauff on Thursday. Against Gauff, Świątek has now been victorious in 11 of their past 12 meetings. In Saturday’s final, Świątek could win a third straight French Open title when she faces Italy’s Jasmine Paolini – a feat no woman has achieved since Justine Henin in 2007. Gauff was looking to add to the US Open title she won last year at the French Open. In Thursday’s other semifinal, Paolini defeated Russian 17-year-old Mirra Andreeva 6-3 6-1 to book a place in her first grand slam final.

Iga Swiatek beat Coco Gauff in straight sets (6-2, 6-4) on Thursday to reach her fourth French Open final. After 10 days of mostly solid tennis, Gauff’s tournament ended in a flurry of scorching winners and spraying errors, against a player who generally makes opponents pay for nearly every one. Yet, with the win on Thursday, Swiatek expanded her career-long domination of Gauff to 11 wins in 12 matches. Swiatek broke Gauff’s serve in the next two games, the second time without Gauff winning a point. After Gauff saved two match points, and a third on Swiatek’s serve, the fourth was too far — Swiatek sailing through the finish line in 97 minutes.

On Day 11 of Roland Garros 2024, there were breaks of serve galore, semifinals surprises and doubles lessons for single players. If you’re a fan of players holding serve, I’m afraid Wednesday’s day session on Court Phillippe-Chatrier was not for you. There were 26 breaks of serve in the six singles sets played, an average of more than four breaks per set. Neither had ever reached even a Grand Slam quarterfinal before, while Rybakina, Sabalenka and Swiatek had been the best players of the clay court swing, alongside Danielle Collins. With less than 24 hours to recover before taking on Paolini, Andreeva told her partner Vera Zvonareva that she needed to rest.

CNN —Coco Gauff came from behind to defeat Ons Jabeur at the French Open on Tuesday and advance to the semifinals. After losing a tight opening set, Gauff recovered to win 4-6 6-2 6-3 against the eighth-seeded Jabeur, who continues her chase for a first grand slam title. The 20-year-old Gauff, meanwhile, is hoping to add to the US Open title she won last year. She was playing really well the whole match,” Gauff said in her on-court interview. “I got a little bit tight on the last couple of match points, but I think I did what I needed to do to win the match,” Gauff admitted.

CNN —US Open champion Coco Gauff said tennis matches finishing at 3 a.m. are “not healthy” for the players, but also said she is aware there are a lot of people working in far worse conditions around the world. The American’s comments came at this year’s French Open, after Novak Djokovic outlasted Italian Lorenzo Musetti in a third round five-set thriller which ended at 3.08 a.m. local time in Paris on Sunday. Jean-Francois Badias/APHowever, such curfews do not relate to grand slam events where late finishes continue to be a problem, namely the French Open, Australian Open and US Open, where the demand for tickets and broadcasting rights are higher. “I think tournaments are trying their best and players are trying their best. “I was always one of the players that said that we should start a little bit earlier,” she told reporters.

The French Open has banned alcohol from the stands in a bid to clamp down on fan behavior at Roland Garros.

With her biggest triumph in years, Naomi Osaka lost to world No. 1 and three-time defending champion Iga Swiatek at the French Open today, Wednesday May 29. Few even considered that Osaka, less than a year after giving birth, with little success on clay, would stand a chance. Swiatek saved a match point, then let Osaka’s errors bring her back on serve. A killer cross-court backhand winner brought her to match point, and then she watched Osaka send one more backhand long.

Speaking to the Tennis Channel after her fifth first-round win at Roland Garros, Gauff reflected on some of the long-term goals for her career. Świątek celebrates her 15th consecutive win at the French Open. 1 is also unbeaten since April having won in Rome and Madrid ahead of this year’s French Open.

Fans streamed through the gates, packing Roland Garros, lining up for crepes and champagne and Aperol spritzes. If that latter court is his living room, then the grounds at Roland Garros are his estate. Ever since then, Zverev has wanted another shot at playing Nadal at Roland Garros — though not in the first round, more like a semifinal or a final. The idea of playing Nadal on this clay sends chills through the spines of so many players. In 2022, I remember he came into Roland Garros not winning Monte Carlo, not winning Madrid, not winning Rome.
