Last night was the second round of the top half.
Unlike the calm and calm of the second half of the competition, the competition in the second half of the competition is fierce and exciting. At the same time, it also presents the different situations of the two heavens of ice and fire.
No.1 seed Sinner saw off French veteran Gasquet 6-3, 6-0, 6-4.It was a real send-off, and the 39-year-old Gasquet announced his retirement from tennis to end his tennis career.
Third seed Zverev beat Frenkie de Jong 3-6, 6-1, 6-2, 6-3.De Jong tried his best, ran all over the court, and finally won only the first set, and it was difficult for Zverev to control the game more.
However, seeing Zverev take out a blood glucose meter to monitor his blood sugar in the interval between fierce competitions, even if he is used to it, he still feels that it is not easy for him. Although he never said that his illness affected the game, it is not known whether his ups and downs in form have anything to do with his illness.
Sixth seed Novak Djokovic 6-3, 6-2, 7-6(1)Victory over France's Moutai. Although with the blessing of the home crowd, Mutai had some chances, and after breaking Deyo's serve, they were all broken by his opponent and could not dominate the overall situation. Djokovic is standing there solidly, and a fighter of Mutai's caliber can't shake him, even though he's 38 years old.
The above three matches can be described as uneventful, showing the determination and stability of the big seeds.
The next few matches are highly competitive and comparable to the finals.
It is known as the "nerve knife".Bublik, staged a drama of "let two chase three",2-6, 2-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-2 eliminated No.9 seed De Minaur。 The result was surprising. Bublik rarely plays against the wind. Can you turn it around after losing two sets first?! What a jaw drop! Neither man is typical of clay, but it was a great match. Bublik frequently puts small balls, and the victory is to distribute the physical energy reasonably, and shine in this game!
Another exciting matchup that can be called the final is,No.14 seed Phils defeated Spain's Munar 7-6(3)/7-6(4)/2-6/0-6/6-4!I'm afraid no one would have imagined that this game would be so exciting and so twisty before the game! I didn't expect Munar to play so well.
But in last night's game, Fils became a hero for France. With his fitness on the verge of exhaustion, Fils won the deciding set with tenacious perseverance. In the deciding set, Phils was first broken, and after the difficult break, he faced the extremely passive situation of 0:40 many times, the key was that he had no strength, several high-pressure balls were missed, and he had no strength to jump up at all.
In the final stages, Munar's fitness also had problems, and the quality of his shots declined, while Fils went into a state of selflessness, and the Jedi counterattacked and won the match.The score in the fifth set was 7 - 6/7 - 6/2 - 6/0 - 6/6 - 4, and the whole match took 4 hours and 25 minutes!
After the game, Fils took off his jersey and shouted excitedly, celebrating as if he had won the championship!
It has to be said that in the difficult moments, it was almost the cheers of the home crowd that helped him survive the difficult situation of lack of fitness. After the game, Phils took out all the contents of his bag and gave it to the spectators, probably leaving only a training uniform for himself.
Finish another game a little earlier,Menswick, the 19th seed, lost in five sets 6-2, 6-1, 4-6, 3-6, 3-6.Unlike Fils's situation, the new generation Mensik was knocked out. Portugal's Rocha staged a "let two chase three" drama.
This is the best result of a major tournament in Rocha.Born in 2004, Rocha is ranked 200 and has a 4-3 record on the French Open before the tour.
Tonight's French Open is not destined to be peaceful!
There was also a great game.Brazilian teenager Fonseca defeated France's 34-year-old veteran Herbert in straight sets, 7-6(4)/7-6(4)/6-4.
The match lasted almost three hours, with the second set taking the longest time, 80 minutes. I don't know if this is the longest single set. Herbert, the highest-ranked No. 2 doubles player, is still quite competitive in singles, which is unimaginable. He has been out of singles for a long time, and it seems that he missed the tournament during the 2022 Australian Open for the same reason as Deyo, and it seems that he was only seen on the court last year. Only 4 tournaments have been played at tour level this year. It is currently ranked 145th.
After the race, Herbert showed the demeanor of an elder, hugged and talked affectionately with the teenager in a rainbow suit.
Fifth seed Draper 6-3, 4-6, 6-3, 7-5Victory over French veteran Monfils. Monfils did his best to give the local crowd a wonderful game.
No. 17 seed RublevDefeating Walton in straight sets is gratifying.
No. 22 seed AmberWithdrawing halfway through, Great Britain's Fearnley advanced.
No. 26 seed FukinaLost to Leheca.
Other players who qualified were Britain's Norrie, the United States' Quinn, the Netherlands' Talen, Italy's Koboli, and Austria's Misolich.
American Quinn
The third round will be more competitive and exciting!
Exciting matches at the French Open! Keep an eye on the games every day, and follow the results every day.
