Lorenzo Sonego vs Pierre-Hugues Herbert — R128 — French Open

Four hours and three momentum swings later, Lorenzo Sonego outlasted Pierre-Hugues Herbert by converting the chances Herbert couldn't — 5 of 12 break points (42%) to the Frenchman's 5 of 16 (31%). Herbert's serve carried him through a 6-1 fourth set, but his return game stalled when it mattered: he took just 31% of his break looks across 299 points. Sonego trailed on total points (147 to 152) and winners (55 to 59) yet held the edge that decides clay marathons, saving 11 of 16 break points to Herbert's 7 of 12. In their first meeting, the deciding 6-4 went to the cleaner hand under pressure.
