PARIS: Thursday's French Open semifinal line-up is a compelling mixed bag of streaks and stories. The ladies are looking to own the court.
There's Iga Swiatek - the world No. 1, who secured her 33rd straight win in making the last-four. She takes on Daria Kasatkina, a first-timer in these leagues whose play is all about creating opportunities. The second semifinal will pit the 18-year-old sensation Coco Gauff versus the unseeded Italian Martina Trevisan, whose greatest triumph may have been scored away from the chalked lines, beating anorexia.
