In the semi-finals, I.Swiatek crushed another tournament sensation Nadia Podoroskas (WTA-131) 6: 2, 6: 1, who went into the tournament until the semi-finals only after qualifying.

Swiatek also became the first Polish finalist in the Great Accent tournament since 2012, when Agnieszka Radwanska, who has now finished her career, entered the Wimbledon final.

Showing his impressive form in Paris, I. Swiatek reached the final in little sweat. She lost only 23 in six meetings geimus, has never lost a set, and in one of the matches he sensationally destroyed the first racket of the tournament Simon Halep.

In the semifinal duel, I.Swiatek took only 70 minutes.

The 176 cm tall tennis player dominated the entire match and made a total of 23 Winnerius, when his opponent struck only six times. Based on total points won, I. Swiatek nearly doubled his opponent – 61:34.

“I’m surprised! Before the tournament, I didn’t even think I would play that well. But I knew that if I ever made it to the final of the Big Accent tournament, it would be Roland Garros, not just any other tournament,” said Swiatek, who enjoys the game at soil.

Sofia Kenin (WTA-6) or Petra Kvitova (WTA-11), a tennis player who has previously won the Great Cross tournament, will play the decisive showdown for the first WTA title of their career on Saturday.
