World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka has written history at the 2025 French Open, defeating four-time champion Iga Swiatek in a high-octane semi-final to book her maiden Roland Garros final berth. Sabalenka triumphed with a 7-6(1), 4-6, 6-0 victory, ending Swiatek’s incredible 26-match unbeaten streak in Paris.
The match showcased Sabalenka’s signature aggressive style, overpowering Swiatek with consistent depth and pressure from the baseline. The first set was closely contested, heading into a tiebreak where Sabalenka displayed flawless power-hitting to dominate 7-1. Although Swiatek fought back to take the second set, Sabalenka returned with even more intensity in the third—winning it 6-0.
This marks a turning point in their rivalry, with Sabalenka finally getting the better of Swiatek on her strongest surface. The Belarusian’s victory also comes with a psychological edge, as she halted Swiatek’s dominance on clay and at this Grand Slam in particular.
Her coach, Anton Dubrov, stated after the match, “We are not celebrating yet. This is a good win, but our focus is on the final.”
