Djokovic embraces Ironman title after Vosovic wins
The third round of the French Open is underway, with Novak Djokovic and Aryna Sabalenka still mired in off-court controversies at Roland Garros, while Carlos Alcaraz returned to the top spot on Friday.
Djokovic faces Alejandro Davidovich Fokina amid the decision to write “Kosovo is the heart of Serbia” on camera after his first-round victory, as the Serb continues his bid for a 23rd Grand Slam title.
Djokovic remains on a collision course with world number one Alcaraz, who faces Denis Shapovalov in the evening session. Sabalenka resumes her quest for back-to-back Grand Slam titles against Kamilla Rakhimova after being confronted by a Ukrainian journalist after her second-round victory.
Fourth seed Kasper Ruud and debutant Ija Swiatek on Thursday continued their path to back-to-back finals at the French Open, but Yannick Siner later squandered two match points in his five-set loss to Germany’s Daniel Altmaier in an epic battle that lasted more than five hours.
