HIGHLIGHTS-Tennis-French Open day seven

Highlights of the seventh day at the French Open, the second Grand Slam tournament of the year, on Saturday (all times GMT): 1135 TSITSIPAS MAKES GREEK HISTORY

Sixth seed Stefanos Tsitsipas became the first Greek player to reach the Roland Garros fourth round since Lazaros Stalios in 1936, beating Serbia's Filip Krajinovic 7-5 6-3 6-7(5) 7-6(6). Tsitsipas is one of the contenders for the title in Paris after finishing runner-up to Novak Djokovic in Rome and reaching the semi-finals in Madrid last month.

1005 HALEP SENDS TSURENKO PACKING Defending champion Simona Halep eased past Ukrainian Lesia Tsurenko 6-2 6-1 to book a place in the last-16 after just 55 minutes on Court Philippe-Chatrier.

After being stretched in three-setters in her two previous rounds, Halep was pleased with a confidence-boosting victory heading into the second week of the tournament. "I had in my head that I have to stay very strong, to play more aggressive, to stay closer to the baseline, which I did, and when I have the chance, to open the court," the 27-year-old Romanian said.

"So I think today was a better match. I played better. And I felt better on the court." READ MORE
