Italy continues to win at Roland Garros. After Jannik Sinner, who yesterday is also certain to be number 1 in the world from next Monday, Jasmine Paolini also reaches the semi-finals of the second Slam of the season.

The Italian, number 15 WTA, defeated Elena Rybakina, number 4 in the ranking, with a score of 6-2, 4-6, 6-4. On Friday in the semi-final she faces the 17-year-old Andreeva, who surprisingly defeated the world number 2 Sabalenka, suffering from severe stomach pain, at the end of a tough battle. Therefore, a great opportunity for the Italian to reach the last act of the Parisian Slam.

In the men's doubles, however, Bolelli and Vavassori secured the pass for the semi-finals by coming from behind to defeat the pair formed by Ram and Salisbury 1-6, 6-3, 6-4. They will face the world number 1 pair Bopanna-Ebden.

And it's also a semifinal for the women's doubles, with Jasmine Paolini (double effort for her today) and Sara Errani who got rid of the Navarro-Shnaider pair in two sets: 6-3, 6-3 the score.
