Unstoppable top seed Iga Swiatek marched into the last 16 at Roland Garros with her 31st straight win.<\/p>\n
But the fairytale run of Leolia Jeanjean, the French wildcard ranked 227 in the world, was ended by Irina-Camelia Begu while third seed Paula Badosa and seventh seed Aryna Sabalenka crashed out.<\/p>\n
Swiatek is therefore the only top-10 player left in the women\u2019s draw.<\/p>\n
Here, the PA news agency looks back at day seven at the French Open.<\/p>\n

Shocks of the dayBadosa, of Spain, retired injured at 6-3 2-1 down against Russia\u2019s Veronika Kudermetova, and Belarusian Sabalenka imploded against Italian Camila Giorgi, taking the first set before losing 4-6 6-1 6-0. Top seed Swiatek is now the only player in the top 10 still in the women\u2019s draw.<\/p>\n
