Set 1 Winner: Sabalenka vs Shnaider

Aryna Sabalenka is set to open her Roland Garros clash against Diana Shnaider with the momentum firmly behind her, as the Belarusian star looks positioned to claim the first set in Paris. The matchup, scheduled as part of the WTA draw, brings together Sabalenka’s power-based game and Shnaider’s aggressive left-handed style on the clay.

Sabalenka’s experience in high-pressure Grand Slam settings and her ability to dictate from the baseline are expected to give her the early edge. A fast start would allow her to control the tempo against Shnaider, who will likely need to absorb heavy serving and sustained pressure from the opening games.

The first set will be a key indicator of how the match develops, with official Grand Slam statistics determining the result once play is completed. Sabalenka’s form and track record suggest she is well placed to establish control early at Roland Garros.
