Paris (EFE).- The Polish Iga Swiatek, number 1 in the world, won her third crown at Roland Garros, the second in a row, after defeating the Czech Karolina Muchova, 43rd in the ranking, 6-2, 5-7 and 6 -4.
After qualifying for the final without having lost a set, the 22-year-old from Warsaw had to apply herself thoroughly to defeat the surprising Czech, who snatched her first since she was left in the round of 16 last year against the Chinese Qinwen Zheng .
Muchova, who had just beaten the world number 2, the Belarusian Aryna Sabalenka, broke a streak of five wins in as many games against members of the world top-3.
