Swiatek demolishes Potapova to reach French quarters

The Russian attacked Swiatek's serve on the odd occasion to claim a couple of winners, but the Pole's near-perfect shots left Potapova with no answers as the top seed wrapped the first set in 19 minutes.

Spectators at Court Philippe-Chatrier tried their best to encourage Potapova but Swiatek looked at ease, forcing the Russian into several mistakes as the top seed consolidated her early break.

The only problem Swiatek had was the swirling wind on serve, with the roof finally left open after several days of rain.

Swiatek will face either fifth seed Marketa Vondrousova or Serbian qualifier Olga Danilovic in the quarter-finals.
