Ash Barty through to her maiden Grand Slam final after overcoming 17yo Anisimova is 3 sets. Was a game of momentum shifts. Barty out to a 5 love lead in the first, but lost the set 7-5. Barty was down 3 love in the 2nd, but won the set 6-3. And the physicality and emotion of the game caught up with the 17yo and she lost 6-3 in the 4rd. She will now play another teenager in Marketa Vondrousova in Saturday;s final.

Nadal disposed of Federer in straight sets. No surprise there. While Novak's game v Dominic Thiem was suspended with the match tied at 1 set all and Thiem leading 3-1 in the 3rd set.
 
Aussie Ash Barty wins her maiden Grand Slam title by defeating 19yo Marketa Vondrousova in straight sets 6-1, 6-3. She is the first Aussie woman to win a slam since 1976 and the first to win the French open since 1973. She also now becomes number 2 in the world heading into the grass court season - her favourite surface, Cannot wait for Wimbledon which begins on July 1st!

Well done Ash!!

On the men's side, Rafael Nadal should have no trouble claiming his 12th French Open title against Dominic Thiem, who took out world number 1 Novak Djokovic in the semi final
