Kalinskaya beats Potapova in a super tiebreak to reach her first French Open
quarterfinal
PARIS (AP) --- Anna Kalinskaya of Russia made it to the quarterfinals of the
French Open for the first time by defeating Anastasia Potapova of Austria 6-4,
2-6, 7-6 (10-7) on Monday.
Their contest on Court Suzanne-Lenglen stretched to almost three hours after
Potapova failed to serve out the match twice in the decider and Kalinskaya
overturned a 4-1 deficit in the super tiebreak.
It will be 22nd-ranked Kalinskaya's second quarterfinal at a major after she
advanced that deep at the 2024 Australian Open.
Despite pre-tournament men's favorite Jannik Sinner losing in the second round,
Italian fans will have at least one player in the quarterfinals.
Tenth-seeded Flavio Cobolli advanced to the second Grand Slam quarterfinal of
his career --- and also his first here --- after beating American Zachary
Svajda 6-2, 6-3, 6-7 (3), 7-6 (5).
His next opponent will be the winner of a fourth-round match later Monday
between No. 4 seed Felix Auger-Aliassime and unseeded Alejandro Tabilo.
Big-serving Matteo Berrettini, the other Italian left in the men's and in the
women's draw, faces Juan Manuel Cerundolo later Monday.
Also later, top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka, last year's runner-up, takes on Naomi
Osaka in a match between four-time Grand Slam winners. It is the first women's
night match at the French Open in three years.
