ROLAND GARROS 2020 - Qualification

[exislander]

Wonder if either of the Brits due to play today are affected by the above

Liam just won his first match 6-4 7-6

Jay lost 1-6 4-6

[exislander]

Harriet Dart(ed) into QR2 6-3 6-0. Her opponent could do nothing right in set 2.

[exislander]

Another Brit, Samantha Murray Sharan, loses 3-6 6-7 in QR1.

[exislander]

Liam came through a close fought match 7-6 7-6 to reach QR3

She had started well, 4-2 up in the first set. Her ball toss went off, aborted 3 times at one point. Although she broke serve twice in set 2 could not hold her own.

From Steven on Twitter:
Liam has just started his FQR match v (12) Polmans at RG (he's an early break down 1-2* but time to recover, hopefully), (3) Aidan needs a comeback much more urgently, a set & a break down v Vanshelboim in Melilla, and (1) Katy has just gone a break down 2-4* v Belgraver in Porto

Always impressive how Andy Murray comes out to support other GB players (even when raining like now). Vocally encouraging Liam Broady who is battling at 5-5 in final qualifying round v Aussie Marc Polmans.

Liam takes the first set TB (5).
Now interrupted, presumably by rain.

Liam took the first set in the tb. :thumbup::GBflag:

I was only guessing! But play on the other courts was already showing as interrupted!

[Jane]

Covers off and more raking!!

[exislander]

Players warming up - but where I am the sun is shining so I should go out now and watch this later. Good luck Liam!

[Jane]

Liam leads 3 - 1 in the second set
