       PARIS, June 2 (Xinhua) -- World No. 1 Iga Swiatek blasted into her second Roland Garros final after a comfortable 6-2, 6-1 win over 20th seed Daria Kasatkina on Thursday.

       The 2020 French Open champion will play either American teenager Coco Gauff or unseeded Italian Martina Trevisan in Saturday's final. She has also extended her stellar winning streak to 34th matches, only one win shy of the 21st-century record held by retired American player Venus Williams.

       "It is a pretty special moment and emotional," said Swiatek. "I am grateful to be healthy and in that place."

       The Polish went into the semifinals strongly, as she did in her previous matches at this year's clay-court major, converting the breakpoint at her opponent's first serve.

       Although Kasatkina responded quickly with another break to level the score 2-2, the match inevitably went into the hand of the top seed then as she won 10 of the next 11 games to wrap up the victory in just over one hour.

       The 21-year-old fired 22 winners to only ten from her Russian opponent, who however committed 24 unforced errors, more than double as her unstoppable rival did.

       Swiatek has won 54 of her past 56 sets. Only Liudmila Samsonova and Zheng Qinwen have managed to clinch a set from her since the fourth round of Indian Wells in March.
