  1. Sabalenka 6-3 5-7 0-6 Shnaider

    As for Aryna Sabalenka, only she knows what happened there.

    She was just two points from victory late in the second set, but the drop-off had already started by that point.

    She made 57 unforced errors, most of them in those bizarre final 13 games which saw her go from complete control to exiting the tournament.

    Yes, Diana Shnaider improved massively, but that match was entirely on Sabalenka's racquet.

    The only remaining Grand Slam finalist in the women's draw - and overwhelming title favourite - is gone.

    I feel I am with the crowd. I am stunned to silence. What a turnaround. You have to give credit to Diana Shnaider. She stunned Aryna Sabalenka. Sabalenka had no answer, and you very rarely see that.

  3. Sabalenka 6-3 5-7 0-6 Shnaider

    One of those two players will contest the French Open final.

    It has been a tournament full of unforeseen surprises - but that huge shock that we have just seen surely has to be the biggest.

    Aryna Sabalenka is completely dejected. She is battling with herself to stay in this match.
