The finalist from Roman clay, Jaburova, also lost to 47 Magda Linette 6: 3, 6: 7 and 5: 7 due to 47 unforced errors. Thiem lost to Hugo Dellien of Bolivia 3: 6, 2: 6 and 4: 6.

Jabur succeeded at the centrurt in the opening set, but from the second, after mistakes, she often became angry with herself. In the decisive set, she still got out of the 2: 4 state, but in the 5: 6 game she crowned her failure. Although she led 40: 0, she still played the game, for example after a smash into the net, and thus she lost the match.
–
Linette, 30, scored her third elite world number two victory and celebrated them all in grand slams. Last year, Ashleigh Barty of Australia gave up the world’s 52nd player in the second round in Paris, and Polka then eliminated the tournament trio Elina Svitolinová from Ukraine in the second round in Wimbledon.
–
2016 winner Roland Garros Muguruza, like Jabur, clearly won the first set, but lost 6: 2, 3: 6 and 4: 6 to Estonian Kaia Kanepi.
–
Thiem, a 2018 and 2019 French Open finalist and winner of last year’s US Open, returned to the courts after a nine-month break after a wrist injury in late March and has not won the match since. The former third player in the world, who is currently 194th in the ATP rankings, scored his sixth defeat in a row.
