Here, we passed the first spin that represents the first round at Roland-Garros and, as expected, arrived Wednesday, we must already take his telescope to see the trace of the French on the horizon. We are exaggerating a little (so little), but those who remain on the track are worth the detour. That’s teasing, right?
If we assume – relatively logical – that the organizers and the broadcaster Prime Video have kept the best poster of the day for the night session, then this poster is none other than Djokovic-Fucsovics. Yes, you have to get your neck wet, don’t you? But if you know a little about tennis and you like the France of General De Gaule, then you will prefer, as you wish, the oppositions Lucas Pouille – Cameron Norrie and/or Luca Van Assche – Davidovich Fokina.
We just talked about it, THE big favorite of this fourth day is none other than the tennis player / Serbian political activist Novak Djokovic, who should not need to force his talent to kick away from Roland the Hungarian (Astin) Marton Fucsovic , 83rd player in the world and not really a clay court specialist. For lovers of fine antiques, we can only advise you to take a look at the second match of Stan Wawrinka, 38 spring, against the Australian Thanasi Kokkinakis. In girls, Jessica Pegula, seeded number 3 will face Camila Giorgi, Alizé Cornet’s faller in the first round while Sabalenka (n°2) will be opposed to her Belarusian compatriot Iryna Shymanovich. No scandal to be expected this time, therefore.
We’ve already talked about it a bit, but when it comes to French people, if there aren’t many of them this Wednesday, they still make our mouths water. We hope a lot from the second round of Lucas Pouille, who will leave his benefactor short n°14 for the occasion to find a Lenglen more adapted to the enormous expectations of the tricolor people towards the Northerner. For the head to slap side, how not to be tempted by this delicious Moutet-Rublev on the Simone-Mathieu.
Finally, to end the day on a high note on the boy side, we are going to have a great time on court 14 with the match of Luca Van Assche, very easy to beat Cecchinato in the first round. The young Parisian will try to achieve the feat against the Spaniard Davidovich Fokina, who not without difficulty eliminated our darling Arthur Fils in the first round. Among the girls, all eyes will be on Caro Garcia, opposed on a Central that we hope will be fuller than in the first round to Anna Blinkova.
Other matches:
Lorenzo Sonego – Ugo Humbert
Leolia Jeanjean – Elina Avanesyan
Let’s stop worrying about it, it will be nice and warm, as it has been since the start of the fortnight.
Sorry (and in fact no, not even) to make a fuss of it, but it’s clearly the great story of Roland on the French side. And as we want to prolong the pleasure, we put a coin on the head of Lucas Pouille against Cameron Norrie. Even if the idea of seeing him pass from court n°14, his favorite court for almost ten days, to Suzanne-Lenglen, scares us a little, we know that the atmosphere on Lenglen can be able to spin the hairs and transcend a little more the ghost of the North.
