French Open 2023: Iga Swiatek won her third French Open title, maintains her world number one status

Posted : 11 June 2023
Iga Swiatek demonstrated her unwavering dominance in women's tennis by clinching her third French Open title in four years, reaffirming her position as the world number one.
 
The 22-year-old Polish player showcased her resilience in a hard-fought battle against Karolina Muchova of the Czech Republic, prevailing with a 6-2, 5-7, 6-4 victory on Saturday.
 
While Swiatek initially held a comfortable lead of 6-2, 3-0, Muchova's determined comeback injected tension into the match, testing the composure of the top-ranked player.
 
However, Swiatek regained her focus when it mattered most, securing three consecutive games in the deciding set after trailing by a break.
 
Yet another moment of surprise occurred during the post-match celebrations when the lid of the Coupe Suzanne Lenglen unexpectedly flew off while Swiatek was enthusiastically shaking the trophy in celebration. Apologizing with a smile, she reassured everyone that she meant no disrespect and expressed her hope of lifting the trophy again in the future.
 
Swiatek's recent dominance on clay solidifies her status as one of the sport's most formidable players. She ascended to the world number one ranking last year, taking over from Ashleigh Barty, and held the position for an impressive 62 consecutive weeks.
 
While facing strong competition from players like Aryna Sabalenka and Elena Rybakina, collectively referred to as the emerging 'big three' of the WTA, Swiatek remains focused on her own performance and disregards the external comparisons.
 
Reflecting on her consistency throughout the clay-court season, Swiatek emphasized her focus on personal growth and stated that she doesn't concern herself with the achievements of others.
 
With clay as her preferred surface, Swiatek's victory at Roland Garros further establishes her as a formidable force in women's tennis, and her success is likely to continue as the grass-court season, culminating in Wimbledon, approaches.
