Boisson is sensational in the semi -finals
Mirra Andreeva – Lois Boisson 6: 7, 3: 6
It is incredible, but it is really true: Lois Boisson, number 361 in the world, equipped with a wildcard, hardly known before the tournament in Paris, is in the semi -finals of the French Open. Incredible. The French woman is simply not to be stopped at her home tournament, in the quarter-finals the next folder on the never-tired, always fighting local hero failed with Mirra Andreeva. After more than two hours, it was 7: 6 and 6: 3 from the perspective of Boisson.
Boisson overcame Boisson against Andreeva again, never gave up and never lost their nerves against Andreeva, and never lost their nerves against Andreeva – in contrast to the still 18 -year -old Russian. She fought with the – not always fair – spectators, the circumstances, their nerves, in the end with the whole world. At some point the frustration had to go out and a ball flew under the closed roof of the square. When everything went from Boisson from the middle of the second set, nothing worked at Andreeva. The result: an incredible semi-final ticket for the young French woman.
Gauff defeats keys in the US duel
Madison Keys – Coco Gauff 7: 6, 4: 6, 1: 6
Every player knows that tennis is also a mental game – whether you play on the side place in the home club or on the largest court at the French Open. And that the nerves can also thwart you and take care of a tremor, Coco Gauff clearly demonstrated against compatriot Madison Keys in the purely American quarter-finals on Wednesday. In the exciting, but honestly not always high -class first set, we went to the tie -break, in which Gauff then fabricated three (!) Double errors. Keys used this and secured the first round.
The good, and every tennis player knows that, but it is: something like that can change from nowhere. This was also proven by Gauff, who performed much more concentrated from the second set, had her nerves under control and then only narrowly won the second round (6: 4) and finally the third round (6: 1). The still 21-year-old is in the semi-finals of the tournament.
