Jasmine Paolini stunned Elena Rybakina in a back-and-forth contest to reach her first Grand Slam semi-final at the French Open.
She will face Russian Mirra Andreeva or Belarusian Aryna Sabalenka in the semi-finals, with the pair playing later on Wednesday. Paolini broke again before seeing out the set 6-2 with Rybakina earning just a single point on the Italian’s serve. The deciding set saw both players hampered by the wind and struggling for consistency with unforced errors and breaks of serve.
She has won two singles titles but has enjoyed her most productive year to date in 2024, reaching the fourth round of a Grand Slam for the first time at the Australian Open in January.
