13h53 : Irina-Camelia Begu overcomes Ekaterina Alexandrova 6-7, 6-3, 6-4 after 2h35 of fight. The Romanian will be Léolia Jeanjean’s opponent in the next round!
13h51 : And here is the American who breaks, of course. 5-4 for Goffin, but Tiafoe serves to pick up.
13h49 : David Goffin conceded the first set, but leads 5-3 in the second against Tiafoe. It’s here to stay.
13h45 : Arrival of Gaston on the Lenglen. The Frenchman is quite a clear favorite at home against Argnein Cachin, 152nd in the world. But we know that Hugo can go as low as he goes high, sometimes…
13h40 : And Medvedev who pocketed a somewhat disjointed second set. The Russian still had to save a 5-5 ball, he doesn’t seem to be having a lot of fun, but let’s say he is fighting and honoring his rank as the 2nd player in the world.
1:30 p.m.: CA PAAAAAAAAAASSE FOR BADOSA. The Spaniard, third player in the world and one of the few, probably, to be able to compete or try to compete with Swiatek, almost boiled the cerebellum against Juvan but she recovered as champion.
13h25 : It’s a good false alarm for Begu, who will be able to resume the match, while Daniil’s spirit seems to travel everywhere except on the course. 4-3 now for Djere in the second set.
13h10 : Badosa trying to restore the situation like a big one on the Lenglen, but be careful all the same with this devil of Slovak. 4-1.
13h : Otherwise it’s better for Daniil who after a fierce start to the fight, stands out against Djere. 6-3, break. The Russian camped four meters from his line and distributed pépouze.
12h55 : While starting a very sexy Goffin-Tiafoe on the Simonne-Mathieu, I want to talk to you about the Slovak Juvan who is in the process of making Badosa see all the colors. The Spaniard is on the verge of tears, I’m not kidding. Juvan, then. Same generation as Clara Burel, with whom she fought as a youngster. Well, it went a little faster; Already 32nd in the world, 4 tournaments won, real great potential of the women’s circuit at 21 years old.
12h48 : Medvedev woke up by chaining five consecutive games. 5-2 for the Russian, Laslo Djere in survival mode.
12:46 p.m .: We will have a 3rd set on Lenglen! Kaja Juvan equalises! 6-3 for the Slovenian, and Paula Badosa asks for treatment.
12h45 : Paula Badosa clears two set points, money time on Lenglen…
12h44 : Holger Rune is getting closer to the 3rd round. The solid Dane leads 6-2, 6-3, 3-1 against Henri Laaksonen.
12h40 : Kalinina equalizes by pocketing the second set 7-5! Jessica Pegula will have to fight, and Marin Cilic will still have to wait.
12h37 : With the exit of Pliskova, seeded n°8, the massacre continues at the bottom of the women’s table. Jabeur (6), Kvitova (32), Raducanu (12), Sakkari (4), Kontaveit (5), Muuruza (10), Cirstea (26) and Krejcikova (2) were already eliminated, it’s very, very, very open.
12h35 : Daniil Medvedev is better. The Russian has unbroken and instantly takes the lead in the match for the first time. 3-2 on the scoreboard.
12h33 : WHAT A REMONTADA FROM KALININA!!! The Ukrainian was trailing 5-1, Jessica Pegula served twice for the match… But Kalinina is still alive and leads 6-5 now. WOW
12h27 : Casper Ruud has a break lead in the second set against Ruusuvuori. It’s solid.
12h23 : The 26-year-old knocks out Pliskova 6-2, 6-2 in 1:15 and advances to the 3rd round. Next opponent: Alexandrova or Begu. The Russian leads by one set so far against the Romanian.
12:22 p.m .: VICTORY FOR LEOLIA JEANJEAN !!!!!!!!!!!
12h17 : Break in favor of Djere! The Serb immediately puts Medvedev under pressure, and it pays off.
12h14 : 5-1 for Jeanjean, two points from the match…
12h12 : We pass a header on the side of the doubles. Not tip top for our Frenchies at the moment. Fabrice Martin, associated with Golubev, lost the first set 6-3 against Bopanna / Middelkoop. Edouard Roger-Vasselin and his partner Kubot also let the first set slip away, 6-4 against Matos / Vega.
12h07: POPOPOPOPOPOPOLOLO … OLÉÉÉÉÉ !!!! 4-1 for Léolia Jeanjean !!!!
12h04 : Daniil Medvedev is about to settle on the central and personally, I would put a small coin on a match that was a bit difficult for him. Because the Russian has only two matches on clay in his legs this season, and Djere has already shown great things by hanging Tsitsipas in Monte-Carlo and Djoko in Belgrade. Wait and see…
12h02 : Voila, Badosa finally concludes with the score of 7-5!
11h59 : Paula Badosa repeats the break, 6-5 for the Spaniard, who will serve for the third time for the set. Come on, let’s tighten the screw this time.
11:57 am: Léolia Jeanjean takes off! 3-0 for the French against Pliskova, it’s crazy!
11h56 : We approach noon, Casper Ruud took the first set 6-3 against Emil Ruusuvuori, and Rune 6-2 against Laaksonen.
11:55 a.m. : A forehand too long, and Paula Badosa sees Juvan pick up at 5-5. Incredible, Spain led 5-2 and served twice for the set… Everything is to be redone on Lenglen.
11h52 : Jessica Pegula leads 6-2, 2-0 against Kalinina. Marin Cilic can speed up his warm-up, we should quickly move on to something else on court n°7.
11h49 : The Slovenian comes out of it and returns to 5-4. Badosa will serve a second time to win the round.
11h48 : A forehand too long from Juvan, and Badosa finds himself two points from the set…
11h46 : BUT WHAT IS THIS MACHINE??? Léolia Jeanjean stings Pliskova’s service at the start of the second set!!!
11:42 am: FIRST SET FOR LEOLIA JEANJEAN!!! 6-2 against No. 8 seed Karolina Pliskova, what a start!!!
11:41 am: DOUBLE BREAK FOR JEANJEAN!!! It’s magnificent, the French wins a fourth game in a row to lead 5-2!!!
11h39 : DOUBLE BREAK PAULA BADOSA! 30 minutes of play and the Spaniard will serve for the set.
11:37 am: Léolia Jeanjean who ignites the Simonne-Mathieu by confirming her break (4-2). This is France!
11:35 a.m. : It scraps on court n°14. 3-2 for Casper Ruud against Ruusuvuori, no break in sight.
11:32 am: Léolia Jeanjean takes a break!!! YESIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!
11h29 : Pegula takes place on court n°7. 5-0 after 17 minutes, Kalinina does not see the light of day. Can someone turn on the light?
11h26 : On the Simonne-Mathieu, Léolia Jeanjean holds the shock for the moment. 2-2 after 19 minutes. Like clockwork.
11h25 : And 3-0 now for the Matos/Vega pair, arghhhh
11h23 : Another Frenchman currently with the overalls: Edouard Roger-Vasselin, in doubles with the Pole Kubot. Start not really ideal for the duo since they are led 2-0.
11h20 : Still heckled, Juvan is doing well and avoids the double break. The Slovenian comes back to 2-1.
11h16 : 2-0 Badosa after an impressive backhand acceleration. Ouch.
11:14 a.m .: Léolia Jeanjean responds tit for tat with a white game. BOOM BADABOUM
11h12 : Break Badosa! The Spaniard starts very strong against Juvan.
11h09 : Pliskova is at the service to start this meeting, and she provides. 1-0 for the Czech.
11h04 : DING DONG! The matches will start soon, so we take stock of everything that is happening in the immediate future. The Jeanjean – Pliskova, of course, on the Simonne-Mathieu. Paula Badosa, who dispatched Fiona Ferro in the 1st round, faces Slovenian Kaja Juvan on Lenglen. We do not forget Holger Rune, who beat Denis Shapovalov, against the Swiss Henri Laaksonen. Jessica Pegula against Ukrainian Anhelina Kalinina. Or, on the 14th, Casper Ruud and Emil Ruusuvuori, who respectively eliminated Tsonga and Humbert.
11h00 : Hi everyone ! It’s a public holiday, so take advantage of it, you can watch Roland-Garros without worrying that your boss will see you over your shoulder. And since good news never comes alone, the rain should leave us alone. Magnificent.
Without forgetting the Gasquet-Tsonga pair in doubles, as the last match on court n°10. A menu enhanced with a dose of Stefanos Tsitsipas, Daniil Medvedev, Iga Swtaiek, Paula Badosa and Casper Ruud. What else?
“Take your breakfast quietly, see you at 11 o’clock!
