Game, thirst and match. Roland-Garros is over for this year. If you wanted a list with something new, you missed it. Rafael Nadal lifted his 14th Musketeers Cup despite stepping on coal tar. Despite the gossip, the French won (in junior and women’s doubles, but still counts). From Gillou to Lady Di, to Nelson and Coco, we are redoing the fortnight!

Rafael Nadal

Having a place in the men’s Roland-Garros final costs an arm. Winning the tournament costs a foot. Car paid …

Untouchable, no one seemed able to stop his progress until he crashed into Mount Iga. Lady Darya.
Martina Trevisan
To give a note
I ask the Trevisan family for the person who is capable of giving brilliant blows, but who fights when the level rises sharply. Stephen? No, Martina.
Coco Gauff
To give a note
The American had not dropped a set in the fortnight … And then she was hit in 1:09 by Swiatek on Saturday. Before being subject to the Garcia / Mladenović duet law on Sunday. Finals again for Coco.
Iga Swiatek

Lady Igaga doesn’t need to Poker face : we knew she was the best, and she won. But the Pole doesn’t care. the highlight of his weekend was to see Robert Lewandowski in the stands, and nothing more.

Garcia / Mladenovic
To give a note
“Bring the cup home. Come on Blues, come on. Six years later, it’s time. Come on Blues, come on. Who’s in charge of the field? Mladenovic. Kristina Mladenovic. We’re calm with her. Garcia. Carolina Garcia.” Somni MG.

If there was a vaccine to beat Rafael Nadal at Roland-Garros, the Serb would have injected him a long time ago. Except that even when he seems to have found the antidote, the Spaniard mutates the following year.
Richard Gasquet

Being eliminated in the second round for getting into consultant slippers on the terrace of France TV, why not. However, he should not have attended the Robert Pirès Academy. Raise your voice, Richie!
Jelena Ostapenko
To give a note
The Latvian has already won the Roland-Garros, but did not make as much noise as when Alizé Cornet sent her off in the second round in night session. Too many decibels for her. Timo Werner.
Another blue victory this Thursday, with the classification of Alizé Cornet for the 3rd day of Roland-Garros! She beat 2017 winner Jelena Ostapenko 6-0, 1-6, 6-3. pic.twitter.com/dwiRvGP005

Younger, she was said to have the seed of a star. But swear nothing. In a cash galley, he was finally able to throw his handkerchiefs showing The artist who remains asleep in it during his first Grand Slam at 26 years old. Jean-Jean Dujardin.
Gilles Simon

Pablo Carreño Busta’s Spain wanted to send him to early retirement, but he did his best to postpone the deadline. Zizou Simon who, for sure, will also be a very good coach.
Alexander Zverev

drop

He spoke of him as a future winner after seeing him hit his opponents hard. Except that Z finally broke her mouth at the last minute. The (Re) conquest will have to wait a little longer.
Marin Cilic
To give a note
Popeye thought he was the strongest sailor because he eats spinach and has big biceps. But that was before I saw Cilic sending pralines to the service and every time. Trouble is, his blows go through the ghost Casper.
Casper Ruud
To give a note
Reaching the final by dismissing Hurkacz, Rune and Cilic is a bit like reaching the Champions League final by beating Inter, Benfica and Villarreal. And in the end, you lose to a Spaniard. Carry.
Diane Parry
Editor’s note
Magical
To give a note
Lady Di was able to stay calm until the third round, despite the “Here’s Parry” and the “Parry is magic” you want some, here are some of them in each of their matches. And this is even more impressive than beating Krejčíkova or Osorio.
Zheng Qinwen
To give a note
At the age of 19, she showed that the future of tennis will be written with her, eliminating Simona Halep -winner of the 2018 edition- and being the only one who has won a set by Iga Swiatek. A feat superior to the 14 titles of Rafael Nadal. So let the Zheng zoom wide.

Nelson Monfort
To give a note
34e Roland-Garros for the immense Nelson. Always there to pick up a reaction on the edge of the track or to whisper in the ears of VIPs. Equally comfortable when directing the route through the Place des Mousquetaires. The master key of Porte d’Auteuil.
Carlos Alcaraz

Legend has it that it was impossible to escape from Alcatraz Prison. And soon it will also be impossible to escape the clutches of Alcaraz.
Jo Wilfried Tsonga
To give a note
Had it not been for a failed shoulder, he could have pushed Ruud into the fifth set. But GI Jo left her arms in hand, after 18 years of racing. It was long. Was good. The only problem: the dubious tribute from the France TV team. Hide a player.
Well on the other hand France TV could have avoided you lol #Roland Garros And thanks Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, you will have thrilled us! pic.twitter.com/kQ9O7wuSzC

“Right now, men’s tennis offers more appeal. » Seeing the French take the lead at Roland-Garros, the women’s circuit hoped to be respected for its fair value and stand on an equal footing with the men’s circuit. Lost.
