Kostyuk Sends Former Champion Swiatek Packing in French Open Last 16

The 15th-ranked Ukrainian extended her clay winning streak to 16 matches after Swiatek committed repeated double faults and unforced errors.

  • On Sunday, 15th-seeded Ukrainian Marta Kostyuk reached her first French Open quarterfinal, defeating four-time champion Iga Swiatek 7-5, 6-1.
  • Extending her clay-court winning streak to 16 matches, Kostyuk entered Roland Garros after claiming titles in Madrid and Rouen, France.
  • Despite failing to take a set in three previous meetings, Kostyuk capitalized on errors from the Polish star, who turned 25 on Sunday.
  • Relief arrived in Paris as temperatures dropped to 21 degrees C, and Kostyuk won the last five games to seal the victory.
  • While Kostyuk previously reached the fourth round at Roland Garros in 2021, Swiatek has not won a clay-court title since the 2024 French Open.
