11:45 am: Rybakina forced to forfeit

This morning, Elena Rybakina forfeited the Women’s Singles 3rd round against Sara Sorribes Tormo. Sick, the 4th player in the world announced at a press conference that she had been feeling feverish for a few days: “I saw the doctor who said there was a virus circulating in Paris. I think that with my allergies, my immune system is a bit affected and I caught something. I didn’t slept well for two days, I had a fever, headache” she said. She tested herself this Saturday morning on the court, but preferred not to take any risks, “It’s hard to play, to run and even to breathe, so I think it was the best decision to make.” She is now planning on the grass season.

The next match on the Philippe-Chatrier court between Holger Rune and Genaro Alberto Olivieri will take place from 1:00 p.m.
