Sara Bejlek vs Iga Swiatek prediction
Sara Bejlek comes into this one on the back of a straight sets victory over Sloane Stephens in the first round, winning 6-3, 6-2. The Czech had been enduring tough run in this clay season with first round exits in Strasbourg and Rome, either side of a loss to Alina Charaeva in the first round of the WTA Challenger in Paris.
Four-time French Open winner Iga Swiatek is seeking to reclaim the title that she won in 2020, 2022, 2023 and 2024 after reaching the semi-finals but being beaten 6-0 in the deciding set by Aryna Sabalenka last year. Swiatek was impressive in her opening round victory the other day, defeating 17-year-old Emerson Jones in just 15 games.
Swiatek flexed her muscles on clay against Jones. Bejlek is a step up but, bidding for her fifth title at Roland Garros, Swiatek has to be the one to be sided with here.
Sara Bejlek vs Iga Swiatek tip: Iga Swiatek to win 2-0
