Roland Garros 2019: Day 5 Men’s Match of the Day Edmund vs. Cuevas
Kyle Edmund (28) vs. Pablo Cuevas I picked Edmund for a match of the day earlier in the event and it went 5 sets. I am not sure he has to go the distance again or that he will win, but again his match is the one with the least obvious outcome in my view….

Roland Garros 2019: Day 4 Men’s Match of the Day – Dimitrov vs. Cilic
Marin Cilic (11) vs. Grigor Dimitrov Dimitrov has gotten a lot of press over the years, but his results in the biggest venues have not been what many predicted. Granted he was a few games away from reaching the 2017 Australian Open final and also reached a Wimbledon semifinal in 2013. He also won the…

Roland Garros 2019 Day 3: Match of the Day – Karlovic vs. Lopez
Ivo Karlovic vs. Feliciano Lopez This is a throwback match between two veterans. Also, each man plays an attacking style generally better suited to faster surfaces. I do however expect close sets as two veterans seek to advance at a major. One of the keys to beating Karlovic is taking care of one’s own service…
Roland Garros 2019 Day 3: Women’s Match of the Day – Ostapenko vs. Azarenka
Jelena Ostapenko vs. Victoria Azarenka Ostapenko won the 2017 Roland Garros singles title by blasting big ground strokes with seemingly no fear or nerves. She followed that up with a solid Wimbledon but the typical post-slam swoon has set in for Jelena. Still, she is young enough and talented enough to be a big part…
Roland Garros Day 2: Tennis Twitter
Clay court tennis has a great look to it (red clay rather than Har Tru – I did like blue clay too). We have two great looks at the world #1 and world #4, plus a look at a French player who is in the 5th set with a seed, as well as an outer…
