Alexander Zverev will play a third night session match in a row, a first at Roland-Garros. The German is a regular in the circuit’s nightlife. Last year in Madrid, several very late finishes led him to appear in the final very weak against Carlos Alcaraz (6-3, 6-1 defeat). In Acapulco, still in 2022, he broke the record for the latest end of the match by defeating Jenson Brooksby (3-6, 7-6, 6-2) at 4:55 a.m.
Amélie Mauresmo recalls that it would be inappropriate to compare it with those of the Australian Open or the US Open “because we only have one game when they have two”. However, two matches and a possible end beyond the schedule of the last metro, it is not possible.
