Iga Swiatek is human, after all.
Qinwen Zheng stunned the top seed in straight sets, ending her 25-match win streak at Roland Garros.
Zheng, who trailed 0-4 in the second set, is the first Chinese man or woman to reach the Olympic final in tennis.
The 21-year-old did it in a rare yet dominant style, becoming the first player since 2021 (Maria Sakarri) to defeat Swiatek in straight sets on clay.
The four-time French Open champion will still have the opportunity to win the bronze medal, though this will sting for some time, considering she was the overwhelming favorite to hoist gold.
