Thiem saves a set point with a net cord winner. The crowd boos lol

Edit: A second net cord in the same game helps him hold serve.

Gaston isn't going to do it again, is he? Man, that was some pretty nice tennis to win that third set.

yeah, he's won a set, you would have gotten good odds on that even.

Gaston up a break in set 4 and Thiem looking frustrated and tired.

Well, we need a 5th and deciding set as Gaston takes set 4 6-3. The French crowd is certainly helping Gaston.

Thiem breaks and will be serving for the match at 5-3

Edit: Thiem closes it out, but it wasn't easy.

Zverev reveals he's been sick with a fever for the past few days and gets a little snippy with a reporter's question at the of the video. Hey Alex, maybe you should follow through with self-quarantining after playing the Adria event instead of going to a party a few days later if you don't want people questioning your judgement?

That's unacceptable for Zverev to play today. What a bone head , have you learned nothing these past few months. Did he take a Covid test to ensure he's not Covid positive? Hopefully Sinner doesn't get sick now

Looks like the Thiem - Gaston match wasn't put on the main NBC network (it was streamed on Peacock).

Organizers said Zverev had stayed up to date with his COVID-19 tests that players have been subjected to every five days. His results were all negative, his most recent test was last Tuesday and he’d been informed Sunday that he was due for another, organizers said.

NBC's always been a problem with coverage and tape delays etc...

Greek Yogurt advances over Dimitrov and will next play Rublev who dispatched Fucsovics. Tsitsipas has never beaten Rublev.

Should we just jump straight to the final? It kind of looks that way...

PCB and Altmaier stuck in the rain. If the Kenin match ends quickly maybe stick them on Chatrier for some late night tennis?

I think they also still have to play Jabeur and Collins match as well.

I read that Swiatek's backhand against Halep was the same speed as Thiems and her forhand is only 2 MPH slower than Sinner's the fastest on the men's side

Only four games in and the crowd is getting to Kenin. We could see some fireworks in this match.

Edit: Kenin wins the opening two games, Ferro takes the next six.

Then Kenin takes the next 12 out of 15 to win.

PCB vs Altmaier next on Chatrier. Jabuer-Collins moved to tomorrow.
