2017 French Open Day 8

Wonzniacki beats Kuznetsova 6-1, 4-6, 6-2
Karen Khachanov beats John Isner 7-6, 6-3, 6-7, 7-6!

Richard Gasquet retires from his round-of-32 match with Gaƫl Monfils!

Oh no! He was struggling last night before the players went off, and despite a night’s rest, Gasquets has called it quits on Philippe-Chatrier. The two Frenchman embrace at the net, there seems to be genuine sympathy from Monfils. Monfils is through, then, to the last 16, the scores 7-6(5), 5-7, 4-3 (ret).

Gasquet can console himself with the fact that he still has both the most graceful backhand in tennis, and the best polo shirts in France.


Sam Stosur is out!


Sam Stosur, a former finalist here in 2010, is out! The Australian falls to the unseeded Jelena Ostapenko, who comfortably lost the fist set 6-2, but is now through to her first ever grand slam quarter final


MUGURUZA NETS! THE CHAMPION IS OUT!

Brilliant win from Mladenovic, who reaches her first Grand Slam quarter-final. She wins 6-1, 3-6, 6-3, and the crowd go mad! where she will face Caroline Wozniacki.


Bacsinszky beats Venus 5-7, 6-2, 6-1!


A drop-shot seals is, and that’s the second year in a row she’s despatched the older Williams. She plays Mladenovic next, and with Wozniacki meeting Ostapenko in this half’s other quarter, will be conteplating a passage to the final.


Thiem has beaten Zeballos 1,3 and 1!


What a performance that is. He plays Ramos-Vinolas or Djokovic next and neither will relish the prospect.


Djokovic beats Ramos-Vinolas 7-6, 6-1, 6-3 to reach quarter-finals!
