A massive upset could potentially be unfolding in the women's singles tennis as China's Zheng Qinwen claimed the first set in her semifinal match against the dominant world No. 1 Iga Swiatek with a score of 6-2, surprising many spectators and analysts alike.
Swiatek, a formidable force in the tennis world, is the clear favorite in the competition, having already secured victory at the French Open four times by the age of 23, including the last three consecutive editions of the prestigious clay-court tournament. Her reputation as an elite clay court player precedes her, and she has not suffered a defeat at Roland-Garros since 2021.
