Jasmine Paolini faces mission impossible when she takes on world No 1 and defending champion Iga Swiatek in the French Open final on Saturday from 2pm . While few would have bet against Swiatek reaching a third successive Paris final, Italian Paolini's emergence from the other side of the draw was a huge surprise.
' Paolini has played Swiatek twice before, a 6-2 6-1 defeat in Prague six years ago and a 6-3 6-0 reverse in the first round of the 2022 US Open, which the Pole went on to win. Since surviving a match point in the second round against Naomi Osaka, in arguably the match of the tournament, Swiatek's route to the final has been more like a procession.
