Darn, Ons wins 6-4 7-6. Good level of tennis from Leylah today and little between her and Ons, when the match is this close, it's a case of who is able to win the big points and more often than not, that was Ons today.

Shapo didn't come out ready to play and it cost him the first set.

Nice hold by Shapo just now saving a break point. Hubi is playing very well though, Denis needs to hope he cools off a little.

Stop me if you're heard this before - It's raining in Paris and play is suspended. Shapo had a great chance to break in that previous game, but some wild inexplicable shots crept in.

You mean the weather or inexplicable shots from Shapo?

Welp, Shapo and Hubi were back on court, played three games and play was halted yet again. Hubi is serving to force a tie-break in set 2 at 5-6

Denis is not in a good space at the moment as he just got blanked 7-zip in the 2nd set tie-break. Unless something changes quickly, I expect a quick 3rd set and a fast end to this match.

In Shapo's defense, this match has been ridiculous with the rain causing multiple stops and starts. I know both players have to deal with it, but as we all know, Hubi is one cool cat and doesn't let much bother him, Shapo is that bubbling volcano that can erupt at anytime.

And it's not just Shapo - Hurkacz, a marquee match between Felix and Shelton has also been halted by rain. Ben was serving and got broken by Felix and I'm pretty sure the rainy conditions had a huge impact. Meanwhile, you have Moutet - Ofner under a roof which might be an ATP 250 final, but let's be serious, not attracting very many eyeballs.

Shapo blew-up at Tiafoe, and then dominated the rest of the match.

Was that after Frances plunked him at the net?

Tennis really needs to stop promoting this serial abuser of women...I'm not going to add the word allegedly, a German court has already fined him for his actions.
