Rafa has Zverev right where he wants him - No way the fragile German takes out the King of Clay in straight sets.

How many times did Rafa win the French open without losing 3 sets in the whole thing?

Well that sucks. I didn't watch. This is the end of the road for Nadal?

I read that they were planning to do a Rafa farewell on Chartier, but Rafa said this might not be his last French Open, so they nixed those plans.

It's pretty clear these days that the level is so high on the tour that even the all-time greats have to be in top form to win against anyone in the top 50 so I don't see the point of him entering next year's French Open unless he commits to the tour full-time.

Bianca wins the opening set 7-5 over SST - This match is a grind fest thus far as SST is just getting every ball back and Bianca is doing a good job mixing things up thus far.

Shapo up a set and a break on Luca Van Assche. Playing a nice composed match thus far, only turning on the aggression when he's in a great court position.
Edit: Denis showing some mental fortitude just now, thought he had the second set, his serve was ruled out on inspection by the umpire, faced multiple break points before silencing the partisan crowd with a great hold. Keep it going Denis!!

Denis!! Serves it out in style to love. So good to see such a fine performance as there were moments when he could have let the crowd get to him, but he maintained his composure and kept cool under pressure.

A Canadian found a monkeys paw and said just once they wanted Felix and Shapo to go further than Nadal at the French Open
