Yup. She played one previous clay match and lost it, with the foot injury already active.

SO yet again bummed about this. Hoping this can heal up pre-Wimbledon for Petra. (Ha, ha.) :cry:

They opted to put Sinner's match on Chatrier to close out the session. I caught the end of the third set and one of the comms made a comment about fans feeling they didn't get their money's worth with that match with Sinner winning it 6-1, 6-4, 6-1 against a Frenchman named Alexandre Muller.

Carlitos played to an almost overflow crowd on Lenglen earlier. They seem to be putting a French player on Chatrier to close things out though. Monfils plays tomorrow night.

Kudermetova lost to Schmiedlova in straights 3 & 1? Again AK Schmiedlova isn't one of those players opponents quake in their sneakers about but 6-1 in the second?

Well, you have only one match per night session, your chances, in the first three rounds, of having a dud like this are high.
I know they are only doing it for the money, but this was really not needed at RG. A full day of tennis is already good enough.

....Meanwhile, Seyboth Mild had been up a set and two set points in the 2nd set tiebreaker- only for Mild to flutter down in flames- from Medvedev getting all the (tennis) balls- in play to lose the second set, and now the third set. I liked the world a lot better when Medvedev played miserable clay tennis. Just someone- stop him already. (....AND now Mild HAS going up a break in the 4th. So.....)

Nice to see Coco get her s**t enough together to win today's match. Interestingly enough, even with her (for now) losing her final points from last year- she's only dropped from #6 to #9 in the live rankings. With the assist of the other "top" WTA players underperforming. :gorgeous:
