Iga Swiatek advances to French Open fourth round after defeating Magda Linette

World number three Iga Swiatek reached the fourth round of the French Open on Friday by defeating fellow Polish player Magda Linette. The match ended with a score of 6-4, 6-4 in favor of Swiatek after one hour and 25 minutes of play. This victory serves as a recovery for Swiatek following her previous loss to Linette in Miami last March. Earlier in the tournament, Swiatek defeated Czech player Sara Bejlek 6-2, 6-3, a match characterized by 38 unforced errors from the world number three. Swiatek attributed her inconsistent performance in earlier rounds to the defensive playing style of her opponents. As the four-time champion continues her campaign, she is scheduled to face 15th-seeded Marta Kostyuk in the next round. Kostyuk secured her place by winning against Swiss player Viktorija Golubic in straight sets.
