Good afternoon and welcome to the coverage of the two French Open women's semi-finals. First up on Phillipe-Chatrier is the highly anticipated clash between defending champion Iga Swiatek and world No 1 Aryna Sabalenka. Sabalenka has found her feet on the clay and is yet to drop a set in this tournament, avenging defeat by Qinwen Zheng last month in Rome in the quarter-finals here. Slowly but surely, Swiatek is overcoming stuttering form and is back playing with poise and precision.

Good afternoon and welcome to our live coverage of Jack Draper v Joao Fonseca in the third round of the French Open.

The 18-year-old had never played a main-draw Grand Slam match until this year, but having risen to number 65 in the rankings, he is a precocious talent who is starting to turn heads in the tennis world.
