Moutet fires up the crowd and sends Ofner back to the locker room!

Moutet fires up the crowd and sends Ofner back to the locker room!

It was a first for Corentin Moutet, whose victory (3-6, 6-4, 6-4, 6-1 in 2h46) took him through to the last 16 at Roland Garros. Like a magician, he once again transcended the Parisian crowd with every stroke of his racket. Pragmatic despite the emotion, he made the most of his chances (8 break points out of 12) and put on a fine show for the spectators (38 winners, 21 unforced errors). Bluffing, the 79th-ranked player in the world will see out the second week at Roland-Garros.

On the other side of the court, Sebastian Ofner struggled to keep up with the score despite winning the first set. As the clock ticked down, 'Coco' gained more and more of the upper hand. (65% of points won in the 4th set). Dominant in the final act, winning 5 games in a row, the irresistible Frenchman continued to fire up the crowds.

Although he remains a controversial figure, the 25-year-old is France's last hope. So far, he's been on cloud nine (knocking out Jarry in the first round), but will he be able to weather the Sinner storm? Stay tuned on Sunday!
