A chaotic day in Paris delivered one of the tournament’s biggest shocks so far as Elena Rybakina crashed out of Roland-Garros in dramatic fashion. We break down Yuliia Starodubtseva’s stunning comeback, the brutal heatwave conditions impacting players across the grounds, and how Marta Kostyuk battled through to keep the Ukrainian charge alive.
