Loïs Boisson’s incredible run at Roland-Garros continues, but for the French wildcard, reaching the semifinals is not enough. After her stunning 7-6(6), 6-3 victory over Mirra Andreeva, Boisson made it clear that her ambitions go beyond this milestone. “I think every kid who plays tennis has the dream to win a Grand Slam,” she said. “More for French players to win Roland-Garros, for sure. It’s a dream. For sure I will go for the dream, because my dream is to win it, not to be in the semifinal.”
Boisson’s journey has been nothing short of extraordinary. Ranked 361 in the world when she entered the tournament, she has defied expectations with fearless performances, becoming the first female wildcard to reach the Roland-Garros semifinals in the Open Era. Her victory over Andreeva was a display of resilience, as she fought through tense moments and capitalized on the energy of the home crowd.
The 22-year-old now prepares for her semifinal clash against Coco Gauff, knowing that she has already secured her place in history. However, her focus remains on the ultimate prize. With unwavering determination and the backing of thousands of French fans, Boisson is ready to chase her dream of lifting the trophy in Paris.
