Iga Świątek won the women’s singles final at Roland Garros 2024 on Saturday by beating Jasmine Paolini 6-2, 6-1.

The 23-year-old Świątek won her 21st consecutive Roland Garros match and her third straight French Open singles title, closing the match by winning 11 of the last 12 games.

Paolini, 28, had no answers for Świątek, who now has five career Grand Slam wins. The Italian made 15 unforced errors and could not find a way back into the match after her early 2-1 lead in the first set quickly evaporated.

Świątek, the world number one and now the three-time reigning singles champion at Roland Garros, lost only one set throughout the tournament and became the third woman in the Open Era (Monica Seles 1990–92, Justine Henin 2005–07) to win Roland Garros three years in a row.

She also joins Henin (4), Steffi Graf (6) and Chris Evert (7) as the only women to have won the singles title at Roland Garros four times. And at 23, she is the youngest to reach that milestone.
