Johanna Konta became the first British woman after Jo Durie to reach the Roland Garros semi-finals when she swept past American and last year’s runner up Sloane Stephens – 6-1, 6-4.
She will face either Czech teenager Marketa Vondrousova or Croatian Petra Martic for a place in the final.
The 28-year-old Konta had not won a match at Roland Garros in any of her previous four visits!!
