The French Open women’s semi-finals take place on Thursday with two very different matches scheduled on Court Philippe-Chatrier.
Roland Garros will stage the blockbuster and long awaited grand slam meeting between defending champion Iga Swiatek and World No 1 Aryna Sabalenka. Swiatek has won 26 matches in a row at the French Open but Sabalenka has been in dominant form herself.
The other semi-final will put second seed Coco Gauff against France’s Lois Boisson, the World No 361. Boisson’s extraordinary run as a wildcard continued as she defeated Mirra Andreeva and the 22-year-old is the first French player to reach the women’s semi-finals since Marion Bartoli in 2011.
