Iga Swiatek will be Michael Schmidtlooking for her fourth French Open title in the past five years when she takes on Jasmine Paolini in the women's singles final Saturday in Paris.

Poland's Swiatek, ranked No. 1 in the world, breezed past American Coco Gauff 6-2, 6-4 in their semifinal match on Thursday.

The two-time defending champion at Roland Garros, Swiatek can become the fourth woman to win four French Opens in the Open Era (since 1968) joining Chris Evert (seven titles), Steffi Graf (six) and Justine Henin (four).

Paolini, the tournament's No. 12 seed, defeated 17-year-old Mirra Andreev 6-3, 6-1 in their semifinal to reach her first career Grand Slam final.

It's been a dozen years since an Italian woman has played for the French Open title, dating back to Sara Errani in 2012. (Incidentally, the doubles team of Paolini and Errani advanced to the this year's semifinals at Roland Garros with a win on Wednesday.)
