After losing at Wimbledon 2021, Maja Chwalinska took a four-month break from tennis, citing a two-year battle with depression.

A former junior standout, tennis had become a source of suffering for her.

Five years later, she’s a Grand Slam semifinalist 🙌

@TickTockTennis 🤦‍♂️

This is decidedly affecting the outcome of this match…

When will the French Open officially enter the 21st century and use electronic line calling at the tournament?

#RolandGarros

[Ben Lewis @BenLewisMPC]

We are guaranteed a first-time major champion in Paris!

So… who’s going to win #RolandGarros
after all?

In my latest for Court Chronicles, I look at five players who now have a strong path to the title.

The headlines will be about Jannik Sinner - but what a day for the 🇦🇷 Cerundolo brothers!

Juan Manuel reaches R3 of a major for the first time and is projected to crack the top 50.

His brother Fransisco beat Hugo Gaston and is into R3 for the third time in Paris

@swpaintings Best chance to do it, no doubt

[Ben Lewis @BenLewisMPC]

SHOCKER!

Jannik Sinner falls to Juan Manuel Cerundolo in five sets as his body lets him down. Extreme heat led to dizziness and cramping.

The world No. 1 is OUT.

Men’s draw is wide open.

🇦🇷 Juan Manuel Cerundolo is staging a comeback against 🇮🇹 Jannik Sinner, rallying from 5-1 down to win the 3rd

Sinner, cramping, was granted a 9 minute medical timeout mid game at 5-4

This isn’t Jannik’s fault, but umpires need to workin within the rules - not cater to stars

[Ben Lewis @BenLewisMPC]

Beautiful sendoff here for 2015 Roland Garros champion 🇨🇭 Stan Wawrinka, who’s now played his final match at the French Open

Tremendous career, skill, class fighting spirit, and maybe the greatest one handed backhand tennis will ever see

Class from Bibi 👏

[José Morón @jmgmoron]

Perricard pierde en la fase previa de Roland Garros, frente a su gente, y el gesto de Bianca Andreescu para animarla al verla rota en lágrimas es de lo más bonito que verás hoy.

❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

[Ben Lewis @BenLewisMPC]

Was great speaking with fast rising 🇺🇸 Iva Jovic, who’s already cracked the top 20 at just age 18, and will be seeded at this year’s French Open!

Shapovalov is out 6-2, 6-1 to Budkov Kjaer.

Maybe his worst effort of 2026

[Ben Lewis @BenLewisMPC]

One of the recent ATP NextGen stars 🇳🇴 Nicolai Budkov Kjaer is absolutely cruising right now against 🇨🇦 Denis Shapovalov, leading the Canadian 6-2, 3-0 in Madrid.

It’s been a low effort, poor performance from Denis, who looks like he doesn’t even wanna be there.

🚨 KAZAKHSTAN BEATS CANADA 🚨

🇰🇿 Yulia Putintseva defeats 🇨🇦 Bianca Andreescu 7-6(5), 3-6, 7-6(4) in an insane 3 hour, 39 minute marathon match as Kazakhstan defeats Canada 3-1 in their @BJKCup qualifier.

A painful loss for Bibi, who held leads in both the first and third sets

[Ben Lewis @BenLewisMPC]

🇮🇹 Jannik Sinner since losing to 🇷🇸 Novak Djokovic in the semifinals at the Australian Open:

W/L record - 18-1
38-3 in sets played

🏆 Indian Wells
🏆 Miami Open
❓ Monte Carlo

An extraordinary stretch…
