ROLAND GARROS – The Friday sked was a little late because there were still so many matches to play (or even start) by 9 p.m. Thursday night because of the rain.

But Leylah Fernandez v Ons Jabeur – which could be lit – is a guaranteed go as it’s on the roofed Suzanne-Lenglen.

So at least three Canadians will be in action on Friday.

With Bianca Andreescu’s win, four remain alive in all. It’s been awhile.

(Paris is 6 hours ahead of EDT)
