French Open
Roland-Garros 2026 will crown a first-time women’s Grand Slam champion on Saturday — and the final could hardly be more contrasting. Mirra Andreeva, the 19-year-old eighth seed, reached her first major final having dropped just one set all fortnight, ending Marta Kostyuk‘s 17-match clay streak 6-1, 6-3 in the semis.
Result: Mirra Andreeva won the title, beating Maja Chwalińska 6-3, 6-2 for her first Grand Slam. Read the match report »
Her opponent is the story of the tournament: world No.114 Maja Chwalińska, who came through qualifying and beat Zheng Qinwen, Elise Mertens, Maria Sakkari, Anna Kalinskaya and Diana Shnaider to become one of the very few qualifiers ever to reach a Roland-Garros final — and only the second to reach any Grand Slam final, after Emma Raducanu at the 2021 US Open. They have never met.

Road to the Final
Mirra Andreeva
The 19-year-old eighth seed has been the most dominant player of the fortnight, conceding fewer than six games a match across six rounds. Her only dropped set came in a 3-6, 6-1, 6-1 second-round win over qualifier Marina Bassols Ribera; she then crushed Sorana Cîrstea 6-0, 6-3 in the quarter-finals and produced a near-flawless 6-1, 6-3 semi-final over Marta Kostyuk, snapping the Ukrainian’s 17-match clay-court winning streak and reversing an 0-2 head-to-head from earlier in 2026. Andreeva is the first teenager to reach the Roland-Garros final since Coco Gauff, and one of the youngest first-time Grand Slam finalists of the century.
Maja Chwalińska
The run of the tournament. World No.114 Chwalińska won three qualifying matches just to reach the main draw — only her third at a major — and has not stopped since, toppling a string of established names on her way to a first tour-level final of any kind.
| Round | Opponent | Score |
| R1 | Zheng Qinwen | 6-4, 6-0 |
| R2 | Elise Mertens | 6-4, 6-0 |
| R3 | Maria Sakkari | 1-6, 6-3, 6-2 |
| R4 | Diane Parry | 6-3, 6-2 |
| QF | Anna Kalinskaya (22) | 7-6(3), 6-3 |
| SF | Diana Shnaider | 7-6(4), 6-4 |
Chwalińska is the first qualifier to reach the Roland-Garros final in the Open Era, and only the second qualifier to reach any Grand Slam final — after Emma Raducanu, who went on to win the 2021 US Open.
Women’s Final Prediction & Best Bets
Andreeva to win the title
Mirra Andreeva is the clear favourite and rightly so: she is the more accomplished player, in the best form of anyone left, and has shown a temperament well beyond her years. Six rounds, one set dropped, and a ruthless semi-final dismissal of the form player in Kostyuk — she should have too much all-court quality. Tip: Andreeva to win the title (around 1/5).
The fairytale angle — and the value
Maja Chwalińska is no fluke finalist: beating Zheng, Mertens, Sakkari and Shnaider takes serious tennis, and the Raducanu precedent proves a qualifier can go all the way. The occasion and the gulf in ranking make Andreeva a heavy favourite, but a first major final can unsettle anyone. Value: Chwalińska to win a set (around evens) is the smarter play than backing the upright outright.
