Favorite Iga Swiatek needed less than an hour to overcome her first obstacle at the 2022 French Open, while defending champion Barbora Krejcikova became only the third woman in the professional era to lose in the first round of the clay-court Grand Slam a year after winning the trophy.
Top seed Iga Swiatek extended her winning streak to 29 matches with a routine 6-2 6-0 victory over world No.119 Lesia Tsurenko. The Pole has served a Tour-leading 14 6-0 sets this year and owns a 12-0 Grand Slam win-loss record against players ranked outside the Top 100.
