Jasmine Paolini enters Italian tennis history. After Francesca Schiavone and Sara Errani, the 28-year-old from Lucca is the third Italian female champion to reach the Roland Garros final, gaining access to the last act of a Slam for the first time in her career. The Tuscan defeated Russia's Mirra Andreeva, who collapsed in the second set after a series of backhand errors, 6-3 6-1 to secure the final against Poland's Iga Swiatek.
