Poland’s Iga Swiatek has reached her first grand slam final at the age of just 19, ending the fairytale run of qualifier Nadia Podoroska at the French Open with another dominant victory.

In one of the most unexpected slam semi-finals in recent times, Swiatek fully justified her status as favourite with a 6-2 6-1 victory in windy conditions at Roland Garros.

The Polish teenager has established herself as one of the most exciting young talents in the game since winning the Wimbledon junior title two years ago and has been unstoppable in Paris so far, having not dropped a set.
