Roland-Garros 2024: 13:59, Sunday 1st round, French number 1 Humbert already out against Sonego

First disappointment at Roland Garros. This Sunday, May 26, before 14:00, the highest-ranked Frenchman in the ATP, Hugo Humbert, seeded 17th, was eliminated in the first round against the Italian Lorenzo Sonego (6-4, 2-6, 6-4, 6 -3).

At the Suzanne-Langlen trial, Hubs increased the number of unforced errors. The lack of control accelerated its liquidation. However, the Habs were able to bounce back after a tough first set. In the second round, he quickly destroyed his opponent and then led with a score of 3-0.

Disadvantages in service

The second break with a score of 5:2 ensured a calm end to the round. But his first serve percentage (55% compared to Sonego’s 71%) was too low to last in the game. Despite facing 8 break points out of 12, Humbert surrendered in the third and fourth sets at the end of a match that lasted nearly three hours (2 hours 52 minutes).

In the women’s field, France’s No. 1 Caroline Garcia (seeded No. 21) takes on Germany’s Eva Lis, the No. 145 tennis player in the world. She goes on to be eliminated three times in a row in the second round of Roland Garros.
