ROLAND GARROS – The withdrawal of Novak Djokovic, who would have played No. 7 seed Casper Ruud in the quarterfinals Wednesday, left an obvious hole in the Court Philippe-Chatrier said.
Filling in were the No. 1 men’s doubles team and the charismatic duo of Machac and Chang.
In the night match, Alexander Zverev, despite not looking tip-top physically, got past Alex de Minaur in straight sets, and will now play Ruud for a spot in the final.
