FRENCH FANCIES

ANOTHER milestone for Rafael Nadal yesterday, as he thrashed John Millman 6-2, 6-2, 6-2 to win his 106th match at Roland Garros, overtaking Roger Federer’s record at Wimbledon for the most wins at a single Grand Slam.

‘WILL she ever lose again?’ read a sign in the crowd as Iga Swiatek, 20, racked up her 29th win in a row, crushing Lesia Tsurenko 6-2, 6-0. The world No 1 is a red-hot favourite to win her second Roland Garros title.
