Stan Wawrinka exits in first round of his final Roland Garros

Gael Monfils just played his final match at Roland Garros. He’s the performer who dances for free. He’s the painter who paints simply to admire the brightness of the colors. The last dance at Roland Garros is complete… a legend at this tournament and every tournament. Thank you, La Monf. 🇫🇷❤️🇫🇷

Was it ever in doubt that Gael Monfils had to play a 5 setter in his final Roland Garros, this will be his 17th in Paris after running through the 4th 6-2 2-6, 3-6, 6-3, 6-2.

After a first-round loss, Qinwen Zheng, who reached a career-high No. 4, will fall out of the Top 100. She was in tears in her post-match press conference. Never seen her break down like this. Tennis is brutal. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ri_K...

One last time under the Parisian lights ✨ Merci for all of it Gael ❤️ #RolandGarros

17 - This will now be Gael Monfils’ 17th five-setter at Roland Garros, surpassing Stan Wawrinka (16) for the outright-most of any player at the event in the Open Era. Fighting. #RolandGarros | @rolandgarros.com
