Tuesday rapid round-up\u2026<\/p>\n
Day 3 marked the end of first-round matches – it was hot, it was lively and it threw up a few surprises.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a summary of the action:<\/p>\n
Alex Sharp\u2019s first assignment was on Chatrier, where Aryna Sabalenka moved into the second round<\/a> with little trouble, seeing off Spain\u2019s Jessica Bouzas Maneiro in straight sets.\u00a0<\/p>\n Chris Oddo did some extra homework and put together this lovely tribute to Gael Monfils<\/a>. He then nipped into Court Suzanne-Lenglen to watch an extraordinary see-saw of a match between Australian wildcard Adam Walton and No.6 seed Daniil Medvedev. Walton came through the encounter<\/a> with a remarkable 6-2, 1-6, 6-1, 1-6, 6-4 scoreline. Not done, Chris then moved on to Chatrier to watch Coco Gauff edge past<\/a> her friend and compatriot Taylor Townsend.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u27a1\ufe0f\u00a0 All Wednesday’s live scores<\/a> Dan Imhoff headed over to Court Simonne-Mathieu and witnessed one of those great surprises that are occasionally thrown up – 17-year-old French wildcard Moise Kouame took down former world No.3 Marin Cilic<\/a>, who was appearing in his 18th Roland-Garros. Dan then had quite the late night as Felix Auger-Aliassime took more than four hours<\/a> to get past dangerous German Daniel Altmaier on Court Suzanne-Lenglen.\u00a0<\/p>\n Taking up her regular position overseeing the night match, Victoria Chiesa had a relatively short assignment this time as Jannik Sinner swept past French wildcard Clement Tabur<\/a> under the lights on Chatrier.\u00a0<\/p>\n
