ROLAND GARROS – No. 1 seed Novak Djokovic and No. 2 Casper Ruud looked to be on a collision course towards the Geneva final. But it won’t happen; Djokovic went down in somewhat shocking fashion to Tomas Machac.

And Ruud never got his semifinal played. So he’ll have to come back Saturday, finish that up, hope to win and then play the final.

In Lyon, new top 100 Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard, a tall drink of water, is into the final after upsetting No. 2 Alexander Bublik and his … multitudinous underarm serves.

(Geneva and Lyon are 6 hours ahead of EDT)
