TENNIS: Roland Garros rolls on

[JaneJeffer]

Well done Barbora.

I really like Elena's dress.

I like it too Raahh. It probably helps to be 6 feet tall and built like a model.

Yup.

Daniil and Humphrey Boogard are still trying to complete their match but it’s raining again.

Boogaard is like one of the names on the credits of a Halloween version of The Simpsons.

He’s just won the second set.

Daniil in a bit of bother, has lost the second set to Boogaard in Den Bosch.

It's a great name- yesterday there was a lot of debate of the pronunciation of it. I think the umpire was getting a bit of stick (from the crowd) for constantly getting it wrong.

DH used to live in Holland and speaks pretty good Dutch, he says it's like Tice Bow-gard

Now that she's taken the second set I think Elena will probably win in Queens. It's a shame, I was rooting for Tatjana to stick it to the organisers and defend her title from qualifying.

Thank you Ice (and your dh!).
I was also hoping Tatjana would win- I was disappointed to see her second round opponent.

I'm watching Daniil- but it looks like Tatjana faded quickly in the 3rd set.

Well done Elena.

Not really surprising when she had to play those extra qualifying matches, thanks LTA.

Yes. Really not a great look.

Mboko has withdrawn from Wimbledon, which is a shame. Her injury must be fairly bad.

Daniil, what the hell. Two double faults to get broken when serving for the match.

That's really a shame about Mboko, hope it's not too serious.

Wouldn't be Daniil if it was straightforward.

Oh no, tiebreak now.

Daniil is going to throw this away, isn't he?

Emma has made a good start against Sorana. I have really enjoyed watching Sorana’s career resurgence but today I’m rooting for Emma.

Also pleased to see a win for Katie.

Well done Daniil.

Good effort from Boogaard.

Well done Daniil. Got out of jail there. And well done Thijs, he played really well.

Emma is looking good. She does need to close this out in straights given the winner has to play again this evening.

Well done Emma.
