French Open LIVE tennis results: Roland Garros latest – Rafa Nadal, Simona Halep, Zverev, Thiem in action
Welcome back to the Evening Standard’s LIVE coverage of the 2020 French Open.
In another scintillating day of French Open action at Roland Garros, Rafael Nadal booked his place in the fourth round with a 95-minute win over Stefano Travaglia.
Dominic Thiem, who many are picking to win the tournament after his US Open triumph, also progressed with a dominant win over Casper Ruud.
Elsewhere, Simona Halep looked faultless once more, while Alexander Zverev battled to a straight-sets victory.
There were a couple of shocks, most notable Stan Wawrinka, who lost in five sets to No.239 Hugo Gaston, while 16th seed Elise Mertens was defeated by Caroline Garcia.
