#RolandGarros #Qualifications
Game, set and match. Roland-Garros is over for this year. If you wanted a list with a bit of novelty, you missed it. Rafael Nadal lifted his 14th Musketeers Cup despite stepping on coal tar. Despite the gossip, the French won (in juniors and women’s doubles, but it still counts). From Gillou to Lady Di, passing through Nelson and Coco, we remake the fortnight!

Having a place in the men’s final at Roland-Garros costs an arm. Winning the tournament costs a foot. expensive paid…

Untouchable, no one seemed able to stop his advance until he crashed into Iga Mountain. Lady Daria.
Martina Trevisan
to give a note
In the Trevisan family, I ask for the person who is capable of delivering brilliant blows, but struggles when the level rises sharply. Stephen? No, Martin.
Coco Gauff
to give a note
The American hadn’t lost a single set in the fortnight… And then Swiatek beat her at 1h09 on Saturday. Before submitting on Sunday to the law of the García / Mladenović duo. Wacky endings for Coco.
Iga Swiatek

Lady Igaga doesn’t need Poker face : We knew she was the best, and she won. But the Pole doesn’t care. the stand out of his weekend was seeing Robert Lewandowski in the stands, and nothing else.

“Take the mug home. Come on Blues, come on. Six years later, it’s time. Come on Blues, come on. Who controls the field? Mladenovic. Cristina Mladenović. With her we are serene. Garcia. Carolina Garcia. » MG Dream.
Novak Djokovic

If there was a vaccine to beat Rafael Nadal at Roland-Garros, the Serb would have injected it a long time ago. Except that even though he seems to have found the antidote, the Spaniard mutates the following year.
Richard Gasquet

Being eliminated in the second round to put on your consultant slippers on the terrace of France TV, why not. But it would still be necessary not to have followed the Robert Pirès Academy. Raise your voice, Richie!
Jelena Ostapenko
to give a note
The Latvian has already won Roland-Garros, but she did not make as much noise as when Alizé Cornet sent her off in the second round in night session. Too many decibels for her. Tim Werner.
Another blue victory this Thursday, with Alizé Cornet qualifying for the 3rd round of Roland-Garros! She beat 2017 winner Jelena Ostapenko 6-0, 1-6, 6-3. pic.twitter.com/dwiRvGP005

The artist

Younger, she was said to have the seed of a star. But don’t swear anything. In a galley of cash, she was finally able to throw away her little handkerchiefs showing The artist that lies dormant in her during her first Grand Slam at the age of 26. Jean Jean Dujardin.

Pablo Carreño Busta’s Spain wanted to send him into early retirement, but he fought his best battle to postpone the deadline. Zizou Simon who, for sure, will also be a very good coach.
Alexander Zverev

drop

He spoke of him as a future winner after seeing him hit his opponents hard. Except Z finally broke his mouth at the last moment. The (Re)conquest will have to wait a little longer.
Marin Cilic
to give a note
Popeye thought he was the strongest sailor because he eats spinach and has big biceps. But that was before he saw Cilic sending pralines on serve and on every shot. Trouble, the punches from him go through Casper’s ghost.
casper ruud

Reaching the final by eliminating Hurkacz, Rune and Cilic is a bit like reaching the Champions League final by beating Inter, Benfica and Villarreal. And in the end you lose against a Spaniard. Dur.
Diana Perry
editor’s note
Magical
to give a note
Lady Di knew how to keep calm until the third round, despite the “Here’s Perry” and the “Stop is magical” want some, here are some in each of their matches. And that’s even more impressive than beating Krejčíkova or Osorio.
Zheng Qingwen
to give a note
At 19 years old, she showed that the future of tennis will be written with her by removing Simona Halep -winner of the 2018 edition- and being the only one to have taken a set from Iga Swiatek. A feat superior to the 14 titles of Rafael Nadal. So she lets Zheng zoom in.
Rune Holger

Nelson Montfort
to give a note
3. 4me Roland-Garros for the immense Nelson. Always there to pick up a reaction at the edge of the pitch or whisper in the ear of VIPs. Just as comfortable when he leads the tour of the Place des Mousquetaires. The master key to the Porte d’Auteuil.
Carlos Alcaraz
to give a note
Legend has it that it was impossible to escape from Alcatraz prison. And soon it will also be impossible to escape the clutches of Alcaraz.
Jo Wilfried Tsonga
to give a note
Had it not been for a shoulder failure, he could have pushed Ruud into the fifth set. But GI Jo left the weapons in hand, after 18 years of career. He was long. He was hot. The only problem: the dubious tribute from the France TV team. Hide a player.
It’s good that on the other hand France TV you could have avoided it hahaha #Roland Garros And thanks Jo-Wilfried Tsonga you will have moved us! pic.twitter.com/kQ9O7wuSzC
