Simona Halep is more and more the favorite to win this edition of the French Open. The Romanian had an amazing performance against Carla Suarez Navarro in the 4^th round to beat the Spaniard 6-1 6-1 in just 60 minutes. This win was even more “precious” for the Romanian that before this match she used to have a 0-4 record against Carla on clay.
