PARIS – Denis Shapovalov was back in action for his second-round match – so we’ll see how the recovery went after he spent 3h47 on the court after a layoff to deal with a knee injury. As it turns out – quite well!
And there was No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz late in the day on Philippe-Chatrier – and Novak Djokovic as the spotlight night match. Neither had too much drama.
But there was another 0-2 comeback and more five-setters (does Hurbert Hurkacz know how to win in straight sets?) and all that you could ask for on another stunning day.
