Highlights: Del Potro vs Mahut
With the buffer of a two-set lead and up 4-2 in the third Shapovalov was teeing off at will until he finally broke the Aussie’s resistance with a double break after a six-minute-plus game. Daring to go for more in his first Roland-Garros outing on Court-Suzanne Lenglen, a winning backhand volley would secure Shapovalov’s passage through.
