Marta Kostyuk maintained her perfect record on clay this season, advancing to the fourth round of the French Open for the second time in her career. The 15th-seeded Ukrainian clinched a victory against Viktorija Golubic, 6-4, 6-3, extending her streak to 15 consecutive wins on clay.
After her triumph in Madrid, where she secured the biggest title of her career, and a clay-court victory in Rouen, Kostyuk is set for a compelling matchup against four-time French Open champion, Iga Swiatek. Despite her impressive clay court run, Kostyuk acknowledges Swiatek's substantial experience at Roland Garros.
Elsewhere in the tournament, Sorana Cirstea, at 36, became the oldest player in the Open Era to achieve a 6-0, 6-0 win in a Grand Slam, advancing her into the fourth round. Other competitors like Mirra Andreeva and Novak Djokovic also continued their campaigns successfully.
