Coco should be proud
It’s been an incredible two weeks for Guof. Of course you’ll be disappointed now, but this was a huge step forward for her.
“It’s my first time, so I’m trying to get past this,” Goff said afterwards. “First of all I would like to congratulate Aiga – what you did is great and you deserve it. I hope we play each other in more finals and maybe one day I will beat you. I would like to thank my team, sorry I couldn’t get this day but thank you guys for All the support. I hope this is the first of many.”
If she keeps improving in this way, she will definitely come back in more Grand Slam finals. – Simon Cambers

Swiatek secures French Open title as sky turns
A slap of thunder greeted Swiatek while serving the match. It was an all-time tough performance from the world No. 1 seed when she saw Gauff in 1 hour 8 minutes. Her nickname has always been Loss and there was never any doubt. Swiatek heads to the stands to greet her team, and soccer star Robert Lewandowski joins the festivities. Gauff takes it all on her own as she sheds a tear. It’s been a few tournaments from her – she made it to her first Grand Slam final. – Tom Hamilton
The weather turns…
The skies suddenly became overcast at Roland Garros, with thunderstorms expected this afternoon. The floodlights are now on in Court Philippe Chatrier as Gauff begins the second set to break Swiatek. – Hamilton
Iga takes the first set
With Swiatek securing the opener, 6-1, at just 32 minutes, this marks Gauff’s first dropped set in the tournament. To make matters worse for Gauff, Swiatek has a 35-4 career major record after winning the opening set 18-0 at the French Open. – who

Swiatek is very aggressive
That was a tough group for Coco Gauff. Swiatek has been all over her second cast. Gauff needs a quick start in the second set to give her faith. – humping
The Polish kings in the stands watching the Polish kings
Footballer Robert Lewandowski is here on the field watching Swiatek. They are two of the most prominent sports stars in Poland. Lewandowski took a break from national duty to lend his support to Swiatek after starting in a 2-1 win over Wales on Wednesday. – Hamilton
A strong start is required
How important is winning the opening set in a grand final? In good news for Swiatek, who took an early 3-0 lead, this is almost a requirement on the women’s part. – humping
According to ESPN stats and information research, the opening group winner has won 58 out of 65 women in the past Grand Finals and 18 out of 20 at the French Open. Simona Halep was the last champion in Paris to recover from losing the first set. She rallied to come back over Sloane Stephens to win the title in 2018. – who
All about sending Coco II
If Gauff can play cleanly on serve, and by that I mean keep the number of double fouls to a minimum, she’ll have a real chance. The problem is that Swiatek will be looking to bypass the second transmission. So if Gauff wants to win, a high first serve ratio is imperative.
Not surprisingly, Goff seems nervous. She could have made a few mistakes early on in Swiatek to help her settle down. Not sure if she will get it or not. – humping
stage prep
Philippe Chatrier Stadium remains full as Swiatek and Gauff head out for a dazzling reception from the crowd. We already had a visit from Rafa Nadal today before his end tomorrow, and there are tennis kings sitting at the front of the President’s chest with Billie Jean King in the main seats. – Hamilton

Why would Iga Swiatek win
🎙️ ‘I feel like I’m playing better in every game’ – Tweet embed Considering today’s impressive semi-final win:#Roland Garros
Roland Garros June 2, 2022
Quite simply, Swiatek is the best player on the planet right now. Since losing to Jelena Ostapenko In February, she only lost two sets, one in Stuttgart and one in Paris, winning 34 straight matches and winning five titles along the way.
The 2020 champion when she was 19, Swiatek is a much better player now. Ash Party’s retirement could have left her stripped, losing a competitor and incentive, much as John McEnroe felt when Bjorn Borg quit. Instead, she has absorbed the mantle of Number 1 and appears to be actively embracing him.
“I use first place to put pressure on my opponents,” she said earlier in the tournament.
Her serve is powerful, her forehand is deadly, her backhand is powerful, and her faith is unstoppable. Much of the work she and sports psychologist Daria Abramovich have done off the field, keeping her balanced and putting everything in place, but Swiatek’s innate ability to find a solution on court when in trouble is equally impressive.
Aggressive on her opponent’s second serve, winning 66% of the points, will put pressure on Gauff, whose Achilles heel is her sometimes shaky second serve. You will attack, and you will attack and then attack more. It’s hard to see them turn off. – humping
Why would Coco Gauff win?

From the start of the tournament, there was just something about Coco Gauff, the new maturity on the court that is matched only by her remarkable maturity off the ground.
The 18-year-old reached the quarter-finals here two years ago and began her visit to Paris this year by celebrating her high school graduation. From the start, she seemed relaxed, determined and definitely in her element.
Clay may turn out to be its best surface. It moves brilliantly on all surfaces, has adapted to gliding and its coverage of the court has easy efficiency.
It’s her first Grand Slam final, so there will undoubtedly be tension. But her game is in such a good place that it feels like it belongs at that level. This will likely be the first of many Grand Slam finals, certainly not a one-off.
A lot will depend on how much control you can get from your baseline. If Swiatek can serve well and deliver her forehands, it could be tough. But if Gauff expands the rallies and focuses on back-to-back exchanges, she can win.
There’s a Grand Slam title on the line, but the sense is that Gauff will take it her way.
Goff said Swiatek is “ongoing now, obviously.” “I think I have nothing to lose and she is definitely the favorite to play the match on paper. I’ll play for free and play the best tennis. I think in a Grand Slam final anything can happen.” – humping

On paper, Swiatek should win, but it could be close, maybe three sets. If she presents Goff well, she has a great chance. If not, Swiatek is probably pretty powerful right now. Sit back and enjoy! – humping
