Day-by-Day Summaries

Day 1 (May 22)

The opening day of Roland Garros did not get off to the best of starts for former world no.1 Lleyton Hewitt withdrew due to an ankle injury and was replaced by lucky loser Marc Gicquel, who fell to Albert Montañés. No.19 seed Marin Čilić was upset by Rubén Ramírez Hidalgo with a 7–6, 6–4, 6–4 scoreline. David Ferrer secured a straight-set victory over Jarkko Nieminen losing only seven games. Meanwhile, nine of the 20 Frenchmen to start in this year's main draw were in action on Sunday, with four of them taking victory including 17th seed Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. Andreas Seppi, Fabio Fognini and Kei Nishikori all moved safely into the second round.[8]

The women's tournament kicked off on Sunday with a solid win by 2010 runner-up Samantha Stosur. She was joined by No. 10 seed and three-time semi-finalist Jelena Jankovic, former champion Svetlana Kuznetsova, no. 14 seed Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova and no. 17 Julia Görges. Upsets of the day saw Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez defeat No 19 Shahar Peer 7–6 6–1, and Varvara Lepchenko upsetting Flavia Pennetta. Bethanie Mattek-Sands, the highest-ranked American in the tournament due to the absence of the Williams sisters, came back to best Arantxa Parra Santonja, 2–6 7–6 6–3. There was also an emotional win by France's Alize Cornet who wore a black ribbon on her dress in her 6–4, 6–2 win over Renata Voráčová as a tribute to Stephane Vidal, the coach and fiancé of fellow French player Virginie Razzano, who just passed away due to a brain tumor.[9]

Day 2 (May 23)

Novak Djokovic began Roland Garros the way he ended Rome, playing near perfect tennis and routing Thiemo de Bakker 6–2, 6–1, 6–3 in the first round. Argentine Juan Martín del Potro took out Ivo Karlović 6–7, 6–3, 7–5, 6–4. Most of the other seeds got through on the day, but France's Stephane Robert shocked no. 6 seed and 2010 semifinalist Tomáš Berdych with a 3–6, 3–6, 6–2, 6–2, 9–7 win, while Belgium's Steve Darcis upended no. 22 seed Michaël Llodra 6–7, 6–3, 6–3 6–3. France's Richard Gasquet played well in dispatching Czech veteran Radek Štěpánek 7–5, 6–3, 6–0, and seeds Gaël Monfils, Nikolay Davydenko, Janko Tipsarevic, Thomaz Bellucci, Mikhail Youzhny, Mardy Fish and Viktor Troicki also got through.[10]

Caroline Wozniacki swatted aside Japan's Kimiko Date-Krumm 6–0, 6–2 with exactly one hour on the clock. Other seeds that moved comfortably through the draw included no. 9 seed Petra Kvitová and no. 12 seed Agnieszka Radwańska. Nadia Petrova became the highest seed to exit the women's event today when she bowed out to her doubles partner and Aussie Anastasia Rodionova 7–6, 3–6, 4–6. The only other seed to fall at the first hurdle was no. 31 Klára Zakopalová who lost to Chan Yung-jan 5–7, 1–6. The third-seeded Russian Vera Zvonareva, Sania Mirza, Jill Craybas and Daniela Hantuchová all won in a scoreline of 6–3, 6–3.[11]

Day 3 (May 24)

Top seed Rafael Nadal downed John Isner 6–4, 6–7, 6–7, 6–2, 6–4 in a minute over four hours of scintillating tennis. In a pulsating first-round match, the young American pushed the world no.1 all the way, coming within a set of causing one of the most memorable upsets in French Open history.[12] Andy Murray moved into the second round of the French Open with a comfortable win over French qualifier Éric Prodon 6–4, 6–1, 6–3 on Tuesday afternoon.[13] No.5 seed Robin Söderling, a finalist here for the last two years faced a tough contest against the relatively unknown American Ryan Harrison, ranked no.119 in the world. Despite a determined performance by the underdog, Soderling's experience eventually told winning the third and fourth sets, closing the match out with an ace. Elsewhere, Austrian 8th seed Jürgen Melzer breezed past Andreas Beck 6–3, 6–4, 6–2, while no.16 seed Fernando Verdasco came through his match against Argentine Juan Mónaco 6–2, 7–5, 4–6, 6–4. Other seeds that progressed to the second round stage included no.18 Gilles Simon, no.24 Sam Querrey, no.21 Alexandr Dolgopolov, and Florian Mayer, the 20th seed. Wildcard Arnaud Clement flew the flag for France with his 6–3, 1–6, 7–6, 6–4 win over Filippo Volandri.[14]

Currently showing her best ever form on red clay, Maria Sharapova cruised past Mirjana Lučić 6–3, 6–0 in the first round. No. 2 Kim Clijsters didn't play her best but was respectable enough in her a 6–2 6–3 win over Anastasiya Yakimova. A number of other seeds pushed through including Victoria Azarenka, Li Na, Yanina Wickmayer, Jarmila Gajdošová and Alexandra Dulgheru. But Americans Vania King upset 2009 semifinalist Dominika Cibulková 6–7 6–3 6–2, and Swede Johanna Larsson took out 2008 champion Ana Ivanović 7–6, 0–6, 6–2.[15]

Day 4 (May 25)

Novak Djokovic keeps on churning and marched on to the third round when Victor Hănescu pulled out with a leg problem while trailing 6–4, 6–1, 2–3. However, Djokovic's next opponent should be a much sterner test when he has to face 2009 U.S. Open champion Juan Martin Del Potro, who took down Blaž Kavčič 6–3, 6–2, 6–4. Roger Federer, the 2009 champion, won just as easily as Djokovic, racing past France's Maxime Teixeira 6–3, 6–0, 6–2. He next faces no.29 Janko Tipsarevic. Tipsarevic took Federer to five sets at the 2009 Aussie Open. It was a solid day for France's top players as no.9 Gaël Monfils beat Guillaume Rufin 6–3 1–6 6–1 6–3, no.13 Richard Gasquet bested Marcel Granollers 4–6, 6–3, 6–2, 6–4 and no.17 Jo-Wilfried Tsonga survived Igor Andreev 6–3, 7–6 6–3. No. 7 David Ferrer also reached the third round by pasting France's Julien Benneteau 6–3 6–4 6–2.[17]

Caroline Wozniacki needed to call on all her legendary determination to squeeze past near-namesake Aleksandra Wozniak 6–3, 7–6 and seal a place in the third round, where she will meet no.28 seed Daniela Hantuchová.[18] Samantha Stosur showed exactly why she is a serious contender for the French Open title, producing immaculate tennis to see off Romania's Simona Halep 6–0, 6–2.[19] Defending champion Francesca Schiavone sailed into the third round with a 6–1, 6–2 win over Russian Vesna Dolonts, but no.3 seed Vera Zvonareva suffered a real fright at the hands of German qualifier Sabine Lisicki as the evening sun set over Roland Garros. At which stage, the nerves kicked in. The former world no.22 called a medical time-out at 4–5 in the final set and eventually fell to Zvonareva 4–6, 7–5, 7–5, ending the match in considerable pain and distress and being carried off on a stretcher. Elsewhere Jelena Jankovic, currently the longest-standing member of the top ten faced Vera Dushevina and disposed of the Russian 6–3, 6–2. Meanwhile, 2009 Roland Garros champion Svetlana Kuznetsova rattled through her match against Irina-Camelia Begu 6–1, 6–1. French hopes Marion Bartoli and Alizé Cornet were also in action against qualifiers. Cornet slumped to a 6–0, 6–2 thrashing at the hands of Spaniard Nuria Llagostera Vives, while compatriot Bartoli had a fight on her hands against Olga Govortsova but eventually secured a 6–4, 6–7, 6–2 victory that took nearly three hours to complete.[20]

Day 5 (May 26)

Heroic qualifiers reigned supreme in the men's draw on day five of Roland Garros as the gusty conditions continued late into the evening and a packetful of seeds were scattered out of the tournament. No.8 Jürgen Melzer, a semi-finalist last year, became the biggest casualty of the day when he fell to Lukáš Rosol, ranked 111 in the world. The Austrian smashed a racquet in fury in the fifth set as Rosol edged home 6–7, 6–4, 4–6, 7–6, 6–4. Argentine Leonardo Mayer shocked no.27 seed Marcos Baghdatis 7–5, 6–4, 7–6, while Alejandro Falla, another qualifier from Colombia, ended the hopes of no.20 seed Florian Mayer 4–6, 7–6, 6–1, 6–2. Elsewhere, Russian Nikolay Davydenko, no. 28 seed, fell at the hands of Antonio Veić. The overjoyed Croat fell flat on his back in disbelief at the 3–6, 6–2, 7–5, 3–6, 6–1 win. Ivan Ljubičić, meanwhile, dispatched another seed, no.24 Sam Querrey 7–6, 6–4, 6–4. No.5 seed Robin Söderling avoided such calamities, easing past Spaniard Albert Ramos 6–3, 6–4, 6–4, while No. 10 seed Mardy Fish beat Robin Haase 7-6, 6-2, 6-1 to reach the third round at Roland Garros for the first time in his career. Fernando Verdasco, no.16, faced a tough second round in the form of Xavier Malisse, Verdasco stood his ground to claim the match 4–6, 6–3, 7–6, 6–4. Arnaud Clement was battling it out with Michael Berrer of Germany. Veteran Clement eventually bowed out in four sets, and Gilles Simon defeated compatriot Jeremy Chardy 4–6, 6–4, 6–4, 3–2. [21] Spaniard Pablo Andújar put up an almighty struggle before succumbing 7-5, 6-3, 7-6, and as is often the way with a Rafael Nadal win, the scoreboard does not do justice to his adversary.[22] Andy Murray overcame a shaky start and indeed a shaky end to advance into the third round with a 7–6, 6–4, 7–5 victory over Italy's Simone Bolelli.[23]

Kim Clijsters made gigantic effort just to play Roland Garros after a severe ankle injury, in the hope that she might be able to play herself into the event and win her first title here, but on a cold, windy morning on Philippe Chatrier Court she lost her rhythm and confidence and was stunned by Dutch 20-year-old Arantxa Rus 3–6, 7–5, 6–1, in the second round, losing 11 of the last 12 games despite holding 2 match points. Elswehere, seeds Petra Kvitová, Agnieszka Radwańska, Victoria Azarenka, Kaia Kanepi, Roberta Vinci, Andrea Petkovic, Li Na, Maria Kirilenko and Yanina Wickmayer all won, while Sorana Cirstea upset no.27 Alexandra Dulgheru 6–2, 7–5 and American Vania King knocked Britain's Elena Baltacha out 4–6, 6–1, 6–4. [24] Leading 6–3, 4–1, Caroline Garcia was in the process of demolishing one of the greatest players of recent times. Just 17 years of age, the unknown youngster was within touching distance of a huge upset, a victory that would catapult her to stardom in a tennis-loving nation desperate for a new darling ever since the retirement of Amelie Mauresmo. Garcia eventually fell to Maria Sharapova 3–6, 6–4, 6–0 losing the last 11 games.[25]

Day 6 (May 27)

It is hard to call a man who is as accomplished on clay courts as David Ferrer a dark horse at Roland Garros, but the Spaniard has yet to reach the semi-finals. At the age of 29, he still has to show he has the legs to go far, but his 6–1, 6–1, 6–3 victory over Ukraine's Sergiy Stakhovsky made it clear that he is capable of doing so.[26] An nearly perfect day for French players turned a little cloudy when Stanislas Wawrinka came back from two sets down to stun Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 4–6, 6–7, 7–6, 6–2, 6–3. Before that, Gaël Monfils had crushed Steve Darcis 6–3, 6–4, 7–5 and Richard Gasquet dispatched Thomaz Bellucci 6–2, 6–3, 3–6, 6–3. Wawrinka will face his countryman Roger Federer, who cruised past Janko Tipsarević 6–1, 6–4, 6–3. In the other matches of the day, Albert Montañés upset no.12 seed Mikhail Youzhny and will play Fabio Fognini, who overcame Guillermo García-López in four sets.[27] In fading light on Suzanne Lenglen Court, Novak Djokovic and Juan Martin del Potro served up a magnificent spectacle of top-class tennis, made all the more enjoyable by the excellent atmosphere of mutual respect between the players. When chair umpire Pascal Maria called time on proceedings there was nothing to separate the two, the 6–3, 3–6 score-line setting things up perfectly for a three-set shootout on Saturday. [28]

Since Samantha Stosur arrived at Roland Garros almost a week ago there has been a sense that the naysayers have been perched on the edge of their seats just waiting for her to bury herself on the surface upon which she has blossomed during the past two seasons. Today, the doubters got their way, as last year's runner-up was bundled out of the tournament in three sets by world no. 51 Gisela Dulko 6–4, 1–6, 6–3. [29] Francesca Schiavone advanced to the fourth round of Roland Garros after her opponent Peng Shuai was forced to retire due to illness.[30] Top seed Caroline Wozniacki sensationally crashed out of the French Open 1–6, 3–6 at the hands of Daniela Hantuchová on Friday afternoon. The world no. 1 was sent packing by her Slovakian opponent who barely put a foot wrong during the entire match, hitting 26 winners to 8 of the Dane. In defeating Wozniacki, the 28-year-old has equalled her best result here. She now faces 2009 French Open winner Svetlana Kuznetsova, who saw off up-and-coming Canadian teenager Rebecca Marino 6–0, 6–4 in 49 minutes earlier in the day.[31] Marion Bartoli, who last week reached her first clay court final in Strasbourg before being forced to retire injured, fought back from a set down to scoop a 3–6, 6–2, 6–4 victory over dark-horse Julia Görges but was made to work for it. Meanwhile, over on Court 7, no. 14 seed Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova also came back from a set down to defeat Spanish qualifier Nuria Llagostera Vives 3–6, 6–3, 6–3 and set up a round of 16 clash with fellow Russian Vera Zvonareva, after the no. 3 seed sealed a 6–2, 6–3 victory over Anastasia Rodionova. Jelena Janković (no. 10), who is defending semi-final point from last year, eased past an erratic Bethanie Mattek-Sands 6–2, 6–2.[32]
