Sixteen-year-old French wild card Diane Parry defeated Vera Lapko 6-2 6-4 to become the youngest woman to win a main draw singles match at Roland Garros for 10 years.
Hanfmann making himself heard
Yannick Hanfmann went where many have gone before by being summarily dispatched from Court Philippe Chatrier by Nadal. But the 27-year-old German qualifier stands out for other reasons. He only has 60 per cent hearing in both ears and is hoping to work saving endangered animals when his tennis career is over. "I feel tennis is amazing, I love it, but tennis isn't everything, there's more in this world," he told rolandgarros.com.
