For the eighth-seeded Andreeva, it's a chance to fulfill the talent everyone spotted when she was a junior and become the first Russian to win here since Maria Sharapova won the second of her two French Open titles in 2014.

For Chwalinska, in only her third Grand Slam main draw, it's an opportunity to make history by becoming the first qualifier to win the title, and only the second qualifier to win a major, following in the footsteps of Emma Raducanu at the US Open in 2021.
