Alexander Zverev, who beat Frenchman Pierre-Hugues Herbert, four times Grand Slam champion in doubles. After losing his first game to 6: 2, the German tennis player passed the second from 1: 4 and shortened the third set from 3 to 5.

The German player will face Italian Marco Cecchinato in the next round, who, unlike him, already played in the semi-finals at Roland Garros in 2018.
Even if not in scandalous circumstances, but in a tense mood, the fifth priority for women ended. Kiki bertens and the 2012 finalist Sara errani match. In the third game, between 2: 2 and 7: 7, only the bettor won the boom, but the 33-year-old player, currently 150 in the world ranking, the Italian lady had a match ball as a service at 6: 5. However, he did not take advantage of it, and the turning point was that the Dutch driver was finally able to get his own serve in 7: 7 and then won the match with another break.
Bertens was so exhausted from the 3hr 10min battle that he threw himself to the ground immediately after selling the match ball and only then went to the net to thank Erran for the fight, but the Italian did not expect this, he thought that the suffering of his Dutch rival was only a play, and Without a “bat”, he left Bertens on the field with a wooden box. Erran was probably not entirely right about this, as Bertens left track 14 in a wheelchair in tears (and apparently great pain).
