Leylah just won the opening set 6-3 over Magda Linette.
Edit: Terrible start to set 2 however (double faults creeping in again).

That set zoomed by in a hurry as Linette takes it 6-1.

Sakkari done, lol.
Kokkinakis earlier eliminated Dan Evans.

The weather was too nice out here so I left for a hit with the missus. Happy to see that Leylah prevailed 6-3 in set 3.

She needs to make a chance on her team (new coach/psychologist), you just can't keep the status quo.

Imagine before the tournament starts you get Phillipe Chartier tickets for opening night and you see Mannarino vs Humbert

It was Rublev last year. The opening Sunday in Paris is always kind of a dud.

Felix was just eliminated by Fabio Fognini in straight sets. No real surprise there, Fabio is darn good on the clay and Felix has a bad shoulder and a bum knee. Hopefully, he'll be better for the grass season.

Hopefully Felix is fully healthy for hardcourt season so he doesn't slide out of the top 20.

By the way, the news came out late last week that Peter Polansky is no longer working with Denis. New coach is Matt Daly.
His name is Matt Daly. He’s a 44-year-old American who played collegiately at Notre Dame and on the pro Futures circuit for a few years, after graduating with a degree in finance.
Daly works with Brian Barker – the longtime coach of former top-five player James Blake – at the Tennis Club of Trumbull in Connecticut. He has been on tour with ATP and WTA players for short periods of time in the past, and we’re told that a lot of players quietly make the trip to Trumbull for Barker and Daly’s counsel but, because of family, Daly hasn’t been a full-time touring coach.
His Facebook page says he’s “worked with a number of ATP top-100 players on grip changes” with a device called “Grip MD“, developed by Daly and former pro Mark Merklein.
Daly’s arrival – although we don’t know if it’s a trial, a short-term thing or a permanent hire – signals the end of Shapovalov’s time with Peter Polansky – a relationship which ended amicably, if abruptly.

FAA should have withdrawn yesterday, he didn't need that.

Sad to see. Almost on the wrong side of 30, where does he go from here?

Man, I just can't get into the French Open. I have no idea why, I just don't like it.
See you guys at the Championships.
