French Open 2025 Semi-Finals
Aryna Sabalenka vs. Iga Swiatek
Aryna Sabalenka stunned the three-time champion of the French Open, Iga Swiatek, who was on a 26-match winning streak as of the French Open 2025 semi-finals. The match was an intense affair as Sabalenka edged out Swiatek in a first-set tiebreak and lost the second set by 4-6, however, she made a comeback with powerful serves and groundstrokes to dominate the decider 6-0.
Swiatek was aiming to become the first woman in the Open Era to win four consecutive French Open titles, but she simply could not keep pace in the final set, resulting in Sabalenka reaching the French Open 2025 final.
Coco Gauff vs. Lois Boisson
On the other hand, Coco Gauff ended the fairytale run of unseeded Frenchwoman Lois Boisson. Gauff was calm and composed, winning 6-1, 6-2. Boisson, while ranked outside the top 350, has already captured the hearts of the Parisian crowd with her historic journey to the semi-finals. Coco Gauff’s consistency made her reach her second French Open 2025 final.
Who Could Win Now?
With both players in top form, the final is quite unpredictable. Sabalenka’s power and aggressive baseline play will clash with Gauff’s speed, defence, and tactical advantage. Sabalenka holds a slight psychological edge, having defeated Gauff in their most recent meeting at the Madrid Open final last month. It’s also important for Sabalenka to win this final since she hasn’t won any major titles in 2025, heading to a potential downfall like Iga Swiatek. However, whatever happens, Gauff isn’t backing down without giving a tough fight. So stay tuned for details.
