French Open
Roland-Garros has its women’s final — and it is a stunner. Mirra Andreeva, the 19-year-old eighth seed, beat Marta Kostyuk 6-1, 6-3 in Thursday’s semi-finals, while qualifier Maja Chwalińska continued the run of the tournament by beating Diana Shnaider 7-6(4), 6-4. Saturday’s final pits Andreeva against the world No.114 Chwalińska — a guaranteed first-time Grand Slam champion, and one of the most unlikely Slam finals in memory.
Today the men decide their last four: Alexander Zverev, the only man left to have reached a Grand Slam final, faces Jakub Menšík, and Italy is guaranteed a finalist as Matteo Arnaldi takes on Flavio Cobolli. Below: the semi-final results, today’s men’s matches, our best bets and the acca.

Quarter-Final Results: Sabalenka Stunned, Italy Makes History
The biggest shock of the fortnight: world No.1 Aryna Sabalenka, the last Grand Slam champion left in the women’s draw, was beaten by Diana Shnaider — so Roland-Garros is guaranteed a first-time women’s champion. Qualifier Maja Chwalińska continued her fairytale, while Flavio Cobolli and Matteo Arnaldi reached maiden major semi-finals to make it an all-Italian last-four clash.

Semi-Final Best Bets
Andreeva to beat Kostyuk
A rematch of this year’s Madrid final and their third meeting of 2026. Mirra Andreeva, the 19-year-old eighth seed, is the highest-ranked player left in the women’s draw and hasn’t dropped a set all fortnight. Marta Kostyuk has been superb — beating Świątek and Svitolina — but Andreeva’s consistency edges it. Tip: Andreeva to win (around 8/13). Result: Andreeva won 6-1, 6-3 and is into the final.
Shnaider to beat Chwalińska
Diana Shnaider arrives on a high after dismantling Sabalenka, and meets a qualifier ranked No.114 in Maja Chwalińska, whose dream run has been the story of the women’s event. Chwalińska has nothing to lose, but the big-hitting lefty Shnaider is rightly favourite to reach a first major final. Tip: Shnaider to win (around 1/3). Result: the pick lost — qualifier Chwalińska won 7-6(4), 6-4 to reach the final.
Zverev to beat Menšík (today)
The men’s standout. Alexander Zverev is the only man left to have contested a Grand Slam final, and his experience and clay pedigree should tell against the big-serving Jakub Menšík, who is into his first major semi-final. Tip: Zverev to win (around 2/5).
Semi-Final Acca
Our four semi-final picks across both days:
| Leg | Selection | Approx Odds |
| 1 | Mirra Andreeva to win | 8/13 |
| 2 | Diana Shnaider to win | 1/3 |
| 3 | Alexander Zverev to win | 2/5 |
| 4 | Flavio Cobolli to win | 5/6 |
Combined: around 9/2. The women’s legs are settled — Andreeva landed but Shnaider was beaten by Chwalińska — so this slip now rides on today’s men’s semi-finals, with the all-Italian Arnaldi v Cobolli the coin-flip. Build it with new-customer free bets via the Bet365 Bet £10 Get £30 welcome offer.
