French Open LIVE: Latest tennis scores and results from Roland Garros

Dan Evans declared himself “fed up with umpires” after he suffered another first-round defeat at his least favourite grand slam, writes Andy Sims in Paris.

The British number three had a furious row with umpire Jaume Campistol after the Spanish official had two lengthy discussions with the young Dane in the third set.

Campistol issued Rune a warning for smashing his racket on the ground and then in the next game talked through a line call while Evans waited to serve.

Evans was immediately broken and lost his rag at the official, fuming: “He doesn’t need a conversation on my serve. Let the f****** match play.

“Do your job! You don’t have to have a conversation with him. It’s twice in two games. Madness.”

After his 6-4 6-4 6-4 defeat, Evans said: “I’m fed up with the umpires, full stop.

“One second he has a conversation the game before because he’s hit his racket. I don’t care if he wants a conversation on his serve – but it’s not really a conversation about the other one.

“Guy sees the ball, the other guy says the ball is out, that’s it. I feel like I’m on a roll and I was disrupted, but it’s not Rune’s fault if he’s allowed to have a conversation.

“It was just a chat. And I’m waiting to serve. It’s freezing on the court. The match was flowing great and then it just stopped in the middle and I don’t understand.

“But anyway, that’s not the reason I lost. That’s just part of the issue, part of the problem, but he’ll be back in work again tomorrow.”

The French Open continues apace on Wednesday and the big game of the day comes in the women’s singles, where the modern-day queen of clay Iga Swiatek is matched up against Naomi Osaka.

The pair will be the third match on Court Philippe-Chatrier. With the order of play on Roland Garros’ main court starting at 11am (BST), Swiatek and Osaka could be on court from 2:30pm (BST).

Caroline Garcia takes on Sofia Kenin first up in the women’s singles before Carlos Alcaraz takes on Dutch qualifier Jesper De Jong.

Despite rain being on the forecast, the match will definitely be played given Chatrier has a roof.

On Monday, as the sold-out crowd roared on Rafael Nadal in potentially his final battle on Court Philippe-Chatrier, Novak Djokovic was in an unusual position. For him, anyway. Usually, the world No 1 would be up the other end, walloping back another backhand or sprinting to a whipped Nadal forehand. But not this year and, by the end of 2024, Djokovic is likely to be the final member of the “big four” standing.

The Serb was in the stands during Nadal’s loss to Alexander Zverev – alongside the likes of Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Swiatek – watching the end of an era with the 14-time champion’s likely farewell from the French Open.

But last night, the world No 1 was back in familiar territory: winning at a Grand Slam.

After a three-day opening salvo at Roland Garros, there are no Brits left standing, writes Kieran Jackson.

As the clock hit 23:30 local time, under the shadow of Court Suzanne Lenglen amid an ebullient atmosphere on Court 9, Katie Boulter missed out on a first win at the French Open in a tight final-set loss. And she wasn’t the only Brit to experience one of those this week.

On paper, as she embarked on a main draw debut here as the 26th seed, it was a tough draw to be on the end of. Paula Badosa is a former world number two whose ranking has plummeted as a result of a stress fracture in her back putting her out of action for the best part of six months. Two players, in identical violet-coloured outfits, who both play a strikingly similar hard-hitting baseline game.

It’s no crisis, it should be said. As well as Dan Evans who lost to 13th seed Holger Rune on Tuesday, two have succumbed as the pre-match formbook would suggest, with Andy Murray and Harriet Dart underdogs against Stan Wawrinka and Linda Noskova. Six entries in the first place is no mean feat and for half of them, the margins were fine. The five-set defeats for lefties Cameron Norrie and Jack Draper will have been disappointing.
