World No.1 Iga Swiatek said Friday she was prepared for her 28-match winning streak to be snapped at the French Open, where she will attempt to lift the trophy for the second time. The 20-year-old has won the last five tournaments she has entered, triumphing on clay in Stuttgart and Rome, and arrives in Paris as the overwhelming favourite for the title.

"I'm aware that this streak is something that may be coming to an end soon, so I don't want to be like heartbroken when it's going to happen," said Swiatek. "I think being aware of that is pretty healthy. I haven't played a Grand Slam since the streak started," she added.
