A female night session tomorrow
19:23
Cerundolo!!! The Argentinian wins and will be in the round of 16
Superb fight on Lenglen and Cerundolo overcomes Taylor Fritz in four sets and almost 3 hours of play. The Argentinian is in the round of 16. He will face Rune.
18:43
Second round Cerundolo!
The Argentinian is hot as embers!!! And he breaks from the start of fourth. The 23rd player in the world is in full success and Fritz does not know what to do anymore.
18:30
It’s a great battle between Cerundolo and Fritz!
1 set everywhere and Cerundolo serves to win the 3rd round. The atmosphere has gone up a notch and tennis level, we enjoy!
Note, in women, the qualifications for the 8th of Haddad Maria and Schmiedlova
17:41
It’s better for Cerundolo
The Argentinian broke at the start of the second set against Fritz. He now leads 4-2 in this balanced and rather pleasant match to follow.
17:20
Premier set pour Fritz
In a match of rather average quality, the American won the first set, 6-3. In the radius of the other matches at the moment, no big poster but know that: – The Brazilian Haddad Maia and the Russian Alexandrova are in the 3rd set – the Slovak Schmiedlova leads 1 set to 0 against the American Day – the American Bera leads 1 set to 0 against the Italian Cocciaeretto
16:54
Good start from Fritz
He leads 4-1 against Cerundolo and after his bronca at the entrance to the court, the public leaves him rather quiet. Like his opponent, in fact.
16:39
Fritz was indeed whistled by a part of Lenglen…
…When entering the court.
We tried to ask the question behind these whistles, and a possible change in the sociology of supporters?
16:31
Fritz whistled on the Lenglen?
It will soon be time for the start of the meeting between Cerundolo and Fritz on the Lenglen. And the American risks being whistled by the French supporters because of everything that happened during the match against Arthur Rinderknech. We summarize it all here.
16:26
Swift Swiatek!
Incredible Iga Swiatek who absolutely destroyed the Chinese Wang, 6-0 6-0 in 51 minutes… Another result: the victory of the Argentinian Etcheverry against Borna Coric in three sets.
16:15
It’s won for Gauff!
The American won almost easily after losing the first set. This is last year’s finalist qualified for the round of 16. But we will definitely talk about the young Mirra Andreeva, the revelation of this spring in the world of tennis.
16:08
Andreeva cracked a little…
She no longer holds the exchange against the power of Gauff and has completely collapsed since the tie-break of the first set. 5-1 Gauff in this third set.
15:57
Source machine Iga Swiatek !
Barely 25 minutes of play and she already won the first set against Wang, 6-0. His opponent is totally overwhelmed…
15:40
It’s made for Gauff, and meanwhile…
As expected, Gauff recovers at 1-1.
The opportunity for us to talk about a match that has been going on for some time now on court n°14: Coric against Etcheverry, a Croatian against an Argentinian. And the first, seeded n ° 15 and considered a future great, is in great difficulty because led 2 sets to 0.
15:36
Andreeva, a little slack
The Russian is struggling to digest the win of the first set and experiences a real slump in the second set. 5-1 for Gauff, who will be able to return to a set everywhere and offer us a suspenseful end to the match.
15:29
Nadal operated and absent 5 months
Rafael Nadal has had surgery. As he had mentioned Friday evening on his networks, the Spanish star underwent an arthroscopy on the tendon of the left psoas. In a new communication this Saturday, Nadal assures that everything went well and that his recovery should last 5 months.
15:25
Swiatek will start on the Central
Small mistake on my part, it’s not for Taylor Fritz right away, so we’ll wait to talk about it. On the other hand, it is therefore time to welcome Iga Swiatek, world No. 1 and two-time winner of Roland-Garros. She faces China’s Wang and is, of course, the big favourite.
15:14
The magic Andreeva!
She won the first round the very young Russian against Gauff, in the tie-break. What energy!
15:09
It’s won for Rune!
He logically won against Olivieri in three rounds, without forcing too much. He will face in the 8th round the winner of Fritz-Cerundolo, the match we are all waiting for (I will explain to you in 5 minutes why).
15:04
Two hot moments on the courts!
First a multiplication of match points for Rune against Olivieri on the Central. Little suspense in this match, it should do it fairly quickly for the Dane. On the other hand on the Lenglen, it is a magnificent tie-break in the first round which we are witnessing between Andreeva and Gauff!
14:56
Seyboth Wild eliminated!
In five sets and 3:38, the Brazilian was finally taken out by the Japanese Yoshihito Nishioka (33rd): 3-6, 7-6, 2-6, 6-4, 6-0.
14:50
It’s very tight between Andreeva and Gauff in the first set
Led 4-2 in the first set by a fiery young Russian, the American calmly – and efficiently! – turned the situation around to lead 5-4 on her serve… before being broken. 5-5, then!
14:30
chained rune
Olivieri fights but does not make the weight: 6-1 for the Dane in the 2nd set.
14:11
Start of the match on the Suzanne-Lenglen between Gauff and Andreeva
The clash of prodigies! Coco Gauff (19) and Mirra Andreeva (16) are currently facing each other on the Suzanne-Lenglen court. The young Russian won the first game on her serve.
13:46
It’s made for Casper Ruud!
The finalist of the 2022 edition gave up the first set to Zhizhen Zhang before unfolding to qualify for the 1/8 finals: 4-6, 6-4, 6-1, 6-4.
13:26
No time to doubt for Rune
The surprise didn’t last long: 4 consecutive games won by the Dane who broke his opponent twice and led 4-2 in the first set.
13:15
Rune broke the entrance
Olivieri leads 2-0 from the start in the first set. And it’s a little surprise!
13:09
Let’s go on the Chatrier and on the court n ° 14
World No. 6 Holger Rune faces Argentinian Genaro Alberto Olivieri on the Philippe-Chatrier. On the 14th, it started a few minutes ago between Borna Coric (CRO, 15th) and Tomas Martin Etcheverry (ARG, 49th).
13:07
Ruud is flying!
4-6, 6-4 and now 6-1: Casper Ruud will not have doubted long against a completely overwhelmed Zhang and now leads 2 sets to 1. A quick third set: 23 minutes only.
12:58
Meanwhile on the Simonne-Mathieu
Tiago Seyboth Wild (BRE, 172nd), Daniil Medvedev’s scorer in the 1st round, conceded the second set to Yoshito Nishioka (JAP, 33rd) after easily winning the first. The score: 3-6, 7-6. The 3rd set begins now.
12:56
Zhang quickly broken in the 3rd set
The Chinese seems to have completely lost his footing in his game, committing regular mistakes and to which he hadn’t accustomed us so far. Ruud enjoys it: 3-1 in the 3rd set.
12:38
Ruud recovers to 1 set everywhere
The Norwegian returned what was given to him: 4-6, 6-4. Things are much better for the world No. 4.
12:04
Stupor on the central!
The seeded n°4 Casper Ruud concedes the first set to the Chinese Zhizhen Zhang (71st). 6-4, and already a delay to fill for the Norwegian!
11:47
Title contender Rybakina is ill and withdraws
Big blow for Elena Rybakina (n ° 4), a major figure at the start of the season and victorious at Wimbledon in 2022. The Kazakh was to face the Spaniard Sara Sorribes Tormo on the Chatrier.
“I was already not feeling well yesterday and the day before. I had a fever, I didn’t sleep for two days. I warmed up today but the right decision is to retire. I cannot play in this state, ”she regretted at a press conference.
11:37
Ruud bousculé the entrance
Small surprise in the first match of the day of this 3rd round, the Norwegian Ruud is manhandled by the Chinese Zhang. The No. 4 seed is already one break behind, 4-2.
11:34
