Roland Garros Day 5 - Arthur Fils lights up Lenglen. But is he f****d?

Roland Garros Day 5 - Arthur Fils lights up Lenglen. But is he f****d?

Part one - It was an extraordinary day in the men’s draw but nothing was more incredible than Arthur Fils’ five set victory over Jaume Munar on Suzanne Lenglen. We describe the twists and turns of the match, the spine tingling atmosphere, and what it might mean for Fils in this tournament. We also cover Novak Djokovic shutting down the Corentin Moutet show, losses from two sets up for Alex de Minaur and Jakub Mensik, and the news that Stefanos Tsitsipas is to be coached by Goran Ivanisevic.

Part two (41m20s) - It was a less thrilling day in the women’s event, but we cover straight sets wins for both Mirra Andreeva and Coco Gauff as well as a third round to look forward to between Jessica Pegula and Marketa Vondrousova

Part three (53m07s) - Jack Draper’s impressive win over Gael Monfils, a recognition of best of five set tennis, and a look ahead to Day 6.
