Top 10 Players

Also in the 3rd round he stayed Raphael Nadal without loss of sentences. The Spaniard, who is aiming for his 13th title at Roland Garros, flexed his muscles against Stefano Travaglia and won in 96 minutes 6: 1, 6: 4, 6: 0. The Mallorcan’s next opponent is Sebastian Korda (ATP 213) and comes from the United States.

The No. 3 winner of the US Open Dominic Thiem defeated Norwegian Casper Ruud (ATP 25) in 3 sets. Against the sand specialist, Thiem did not get into serious trouble despite an initial breakage residue. Especially on the important points, the 27-year-old Austrian was always in control of the situation. In his last sixteen years he meets Wawrinka who defeated Hugo Gaston.

With Alexander Zverev the next favorite came one lap without any effort. Against Italian qualifier Marco Cecchinato, the US Open German finalist spent just 1:47 hours on the Suzanne-Lenglen court. Zverev hit 10 aces, but had to give up his serve once. In the second round, Jannik Sinner (ATP 75) waits again for an Italian.
