What was Day 6 of Roland Garros like? We’ll let the tweets and grams tell the story—here goes.
1.A declaration of love after a doubles win. The Williams sisters adore—and are being adored in—Paris.
2. Pretty as a picture—that’s our Kei Nishikori.
3. Not everybody was in a good mood on Day 6—in fact Grigor Dimitrov was quite ornery during his three-set loss to Fernando Verdasco.
4. Speaking of moods, Novak Djokovic was in a good one after his Day 6 win over Roberto Bautista Agut.
5. Silver fox Benoit Paire showed off his footy skills on the mixed doubles court. He and Chloe Paquet lost in straight sets.
6. Guess it’s about time that everybody learned to spell Mihaela Buzarnescu’s name—she’s into the round of 16 (and she had never won a Grand Slam main draw match before this week).
7. Think Novak Djokovic has lost his fire? Think again. This is the Serb after missing a crucial forehand at 6-6 in the third-set breaker of his four-set win over Roberto Bautista Agut today.
8. The race to No.1 is down to three players on the WTA side, from six at the start of the tournament.
9. Nope. No catsuit for Venus today in Roland Garros.
10. You know how they say keep your eye on the ball? In this case it was a bad idea!
