PARIS — Roger Federer breezed into the third round of the French Open for the 15th time on Wednesday by seeing off German lucky loser Oscar Otte, while 11-time champion Rafael Nadal and Stefanos Tsitsipas also progressed, but women's contender Kiki Bertens retired with illness.The 37-year-old Federer held off a persistent world No, 144 Otte, saving all four break points he faced in a 6-4, 6-3, 6-4 win on Court Philippe Chatrier.Next up for the 20-time Grand Slam title winner is a clash with Norway's Casper Ruud who put out Italian 29th seed Matteo Berrettini 6-4, 7-5, 6-3."The Grand Slams are incredible. You can meet a player who qualified who (you) have not heard of before," said Federer, who last played at Roland Garros in 2015. "It was difficult, he really...

PARIS — Kristina Mladenovic was dumped out of the French Open in the second round with a 6-2, 6-1 defeat to Petra Martic on Wednesday, leaving Caroline Garcia as the only French woman who can reach the third round at Roland Garros.Should she make it through, it will be the third time in the last 10 years that only one French woman has reached that stage — a statistic that prompted a reporter to ask Mladenovic, a quarterfinalist here in 2017, about the strength of the current generation of players.While Marion Bartoli and Amelie Mauresmo, who led the previous generation, reached the quarterfinals of every major, winning a combined three titles, Garcia and Mladenovic have made it to the last eight of a Grand Slam three times in total."We're in finals of Fed Cup, so I think the...

PARIS — Corentin Moutet became the youngest French man since Gael Monfils in 2006 to reach the third round at Roland Garros on Wednesday just as old stagers Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Richard Gasquet exited the tournament.The 20-year-old Moutet, who has recently trained with Roger Federer and spent time at Rafa Nadal's academy, pulled off an unlikely 6-3, 6-1, 2-6, 7-5, victory over Argentine Guido Pella, the 19th seed who has won more claycourt matches than anyone else in 2019.Earlier, Tsonga was knocked out by Kei Nishikori and Gasquet, whom Moutet would have faced in the third round, was eliminated by Argentine Juan Ignacio Londero."It's fantastic to be in the third round of Roland Garros, of course. And it's also a good sign," said Moutet. Moutet is now carrying the...
