2019 Roland Garros Day 3 Men's Notes
2019 ROLAND GARROS DAY 3 MEN’S NOTES Tuesday 28 May 1st Round Featured matches No. 5 Alexander Zverev (GER) v John Millman (AUS) No. 8 Juan Martin del Potro (ARG) v Nicolas Jarry (CHI) No. 9 Fabio Fognini (ITA) v Andreas Seppi (ITA) No. 10 Karen Khachanov (RUS) v Cedrik-Marcel Stebe (GER) No. 14 Gael Monfils (FRA) v Taro Daniel (JPN) No. 18 Roberto Bautista Agut (ESP) v Steve Johnson (USA) No. 22 Lucas Pouille (FRA) v (Q) Simone Bolelli (ITA) (Q) Stefano Travaglia (ITA) v Adrian Mannarino (FRA) On court today… • France’s top 2 players begin their Roland Garros campaigns today, with Gael Monfils up against Taro Daniel on Court Philippe Chatrier and Lucas Pouille playing Simone Bolelli on Court Suzanne Lenglen. Both will aim to use home advantage to have a good run here this year – Monfils will look for a repeat of his 2008 performance when he reached the semifinals, while Pouille will hope to emulate the form he displayed in reaching the last 4 at the Australian Open in January to impress the home fans in Paris. • Monte Carlo champion Fabio Fognini takes on fellow Italian Andreas Seppi in the first match on Court Simonne Mathieu today. It will be the 8th all-Italian meeting at Roland Garros in the Open Era and the 16th all-Italian clash at the Grand Slams in the Open Era. The pair are tied at 4 wins apiece in their previous Tour-level match-ups, but Seppi has not beaten his compatriot and Davis Cup teammate since 2010 and will have to put in an inspired performance if he is to defeat to the No. -

The gap between the best Brits closer to and the top WTA players like Venus is growing. There are less girls playing full-time and the average Venus British ranking is on the decline. We want every girl in Britain to have a positive experience and for them to be encouraged to maximise their potential. Using our collective experience, and four years of voluntary work and research, we have drawn up a plan of initiatives which will help the plight of all female tennis players. All we need now is funding to set up these schemes. We haven’t qualified for government or LTA funding so we are calling on the private sector and the public to help us show that British women aren’t just born to be bad tennis players. We have the formula for filling in the gaps in the British tennis system - we just need support. Though our Friends of scheme, any patriotic tennis fan can become a sponsor for as little as £30. We can turn any amount of sponsorship money into a significant resource for one player or many players and, of course, tailor our unique corporate benefits to match.
