Iga Swiatek’s reign at the top of the WTA rankings is set for a significant shift following her semifinal loss at Roland Garros 2025. The four-time French Open champion, who had dominated the tournament in recent years, will see her ranking drop to approximately No. 7 as her points from last year’s title are replaced by her semifinal finish.
Swiatek entered the tournament as the defending champion, aiming for a fourth consecutive title in Paris. However, her run was halted by world No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka, who delivered a commanding performance to end Swiatek’s 26-match winning streak at the event. The loss means Swiatek will lose the 2,000 points she earned from winning Roland Garros in 2024, replacing them with the points awarded for a semifinal appearance.
This ranking shift marks a rare moment for Swiatek, who has been a dominant force on clay courts and held the No. 1 position for an extended period. Despite the setback, she remains one of the most formidable players on tour and will look to regain ground in the upcoming tournaments.
With the grass-court season approaching, Swiatek will aim to adjust her game and prepare for Wimbledon, where she hopes to improve her record. Her ranking may be changing, but her presence at the top of the sport remains undeniable.
