French Open: Swiatek Storms Into Round Two With Straight Sets Win Over Jones
Before Roland Garros: Iga Swiatek kicked off her French Open 2026 campaign with a powerful performance on Monday, easily defeating Australian teenager Emerson Jones 6-1, 6-2 in exactly one hour to move into the second round at Roland Garros.
The third seed quickly demonstrated why she is a top player on clay courts, racing through the first eight points of the match and breaking Jones without dropping a point. Swiatek ended the match with a total of 17 winners, closing it out with a signature forehand on her second match point.
This match showcased the significant experience difference between the two players. Seventeen-year-old Jones, ranked No. 136 in the world, was playing her first professional clay-court match at any level. Before Roland Garros, the Australian had competed only on hard courts this season after reaching the semifinals of last year’s girls’ tournament in Paris.
