Meanwhile, Romanian 18th seed Sorana Cirstea is into her second French Open quarter-final – 17 years after her first appearance in the last eight at Roland Garros.
The 36-year-old, who plans to retire at the end of the year, was a 6-3 7-6 (7-4) winner against Chinese qualifier Wang Xiyu.
The victory continues Cirstea’s remarkable form in the twilight of her career. following her 6-0 6-0 victory over Solano Sierra in the third round.
Cirstea said her final year in the sport is “going way better than I expected” but, at the moment, she is not planning to reverse her decision to retire.
“I’m just trying to take it week by week and I’m not going to do anything different,” said Cirstea. “I’m not going to try now to change things or put any pressure.
“Of course, we will assess things as we go, but at the moment the decision is the same.”
Cirstea beat world number one Aryna Sabalenka in Rome earlier this month, while her run at Roland Garros is her best at a Grand Slam since reaching the US Open quarter-finals in 2023.
Cirstea said she is “more mature” at the age of 36 compared to the early stages of her career and has a “different kind of perspective and mindset”.
She added: “I think when I was really young, it was a little bit of life or death every single match. I would win, I was very, very happy. I would lose, [for] two days I would be crying.
“I have so much passion for the sport. I have so much joy playing, but at the same time, it’s my job.”
Cirstea will next play Russian eighth seed Mirra Andreeva, who won 6-3 6-2 against unseeded Swiss player Jil Teichmann in round four on Sunday.
Andreeva was two years old at the time of Cirstea’s previous last-eight appearance at Roland Garros in 2009.
