Big hugs, cheeky grabs, incredible shots and moments, all in tweets of the week, Roland Garros style.

Cheeky moments. Tearjerkers. Triumph, trials and tribulations. Week one had a bit of everything in Paris. Catch up on what moved the needle on social media here.
1. Who says there is no camaraderie in the WTA locker room? Check out Serena Williams giving Kristina Mladenovic a big, sympathetic hug after their fierce battle on Saturday.
2. Check out Dominic Thiem, taking the Adidas Y3 look to a strange and, um, scary new level.
3. Radical, dude! Ernests Gulbis and his albatross forehand are surfing their way into the second week at Roland Garros.
4. Bethanie Mattek-Sands, ever the W-A-R-R-I-O-R!
5. Wait, what? Somebody in Tsvetana Pironkova’s team was pretty sneaky/frisky after the Bulgarian won her third-round match…
6. Hands down, best point of week one!
7. It is not easy going through a major without Roger, but at least we have his Twitter feed…
8. Aww, poor Zebra kit. Ana looked great in it, by the way…
9. And… here’s your most memorable photo of week one of the French Open.
10. But this gorgeous photo of Richard Gasquet’s celebration after defeating Kei Nishikori isn’t far behind…
11. (Because this one goes to 11) Cue the burlesque music for Benoit Paire. Never a dull moment with this young man.
12. (Why not 12? ) What a shot by Rafa! You’re an absolute god and we hope you get well soon!
