Krejcikova wins women's French Open title

The Czech Republic's Barbora Krejcikova defeated the No. 31 seed Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, who hails from Russia, 6-1, 2-6, 6-4, becoming the third unseeded  women's player to win at Roland Garros in five years, following Poland's Iga Swiatek in 2020 and Latvia's Jelena Ostapenko in 2017. It was the first appearance for both Krejcikova and Pavlyuchenkova in a Grand Slam final and, therefore, the former's first win on that stage. On the men's side, top-seeded Novak Djokovic is facing off against No. 5-seed Stefanos Tsitsipas in Sunday's final. He's seeking his second French Open crown and his 19th Grand Slam title.
