The highlight of Day 14 at Roland Garros is the women’s singles final, where world No. 1 and defending champion Iga Swiatek takes on wildcard Marton Pouillot, aiming for a third consecutive title.
Kicking off at Court Philippe Chatrier will be the wheelchair women’s singles final, featuring Chinese wheelchair tennis ace Zhu Jinning against top seed Aniek Gräfe. Gräfe recently won the Laureus World Sports Award for Athlete of the Year in Disability Sport and is the dominant force in wheelchair tennis. Zhu, China’s first player to reach a Roland Garros final in a wheelchair, is set to give her all!
Iga Swiatek
Marton Pouillot
The women’s singles showdown between Swiatek and Pouillot will commence at 9 PM local time (21:00 Beijing), with the Polish former world No. 1 holding a clear favorite status. Although Pouillot hasn’t advanced beyond the quarterfinals at a Grand Slam before, her clay court prowess and fighting spirit shouldn’t be underestimated. This will be their third meeting, with Swiatek having won both previous encounters.
Capping off the day’s action will be the men’s doubles final, pitting ninth seeds Aisam-ul-Haq Qureshi/Pierre-Hugues Herbert against eleventh seeds Joe Salisbury/Marcel Granollers. The Italian duo has made it to the final in back-to-back majors, securing a runner-up finish at the Australian Open this year. Qureshi/Herbert, who started partnering this season, have claimed titles in Hong Kong and Geneva.
