The young French Fionna Ferro, 23, and Clara Burel, 19, qualified for the third round of Roland-Garros.

World No. 1 Novak Djokovic flew over his second round against Lithuanian Berankis, in three sets (6-1, 6-2, 6-2) and barely 1h23.

And three French women in the third round of Roland-Garros.

After Caroline Garcia on Wednesday, youngsters Fiona Ferro and Clara Burel also qualified for the rest of the Paris tournament, compensating (a little) for the rout of the French players.

Fiona Ferro (49th) offered Thursday the Kazakhe Elena Rybakina, 18th world, in three sets (6-3, 4-6, 6-2).

The 23-year-old Frenchwoman will face Romanian Patricia Maria Tig (59th) on Saturday for a place in the round of 16. 

The beautiful course of Clara Burel, who benefited from a wild card, also continues.

The 357th world, barely 19, dismissed the Slovenian Kaja Juvan (103rd) in straight sets (7-6 [6], 6-2) to qualify for the first time in the third round of a Grand Slam.

Ex-world n ° 1 juniors, Burel is coming back from a wrist injury and is therefore taking a new step in the wake of his first victory on the main circuit, obtained in Strasbourg just before Roland-Garros.

Superb victory for Clara Burel!



After a convincing performance and despite a palpable tension at the end of the match, the 19-year-old Frenchwoman joined the 3rd round by beating Kaja Juvan, the Slovenian 7/6, 6/2 # RG20

Cornet eliminated, Djokovic out for a ride

Fiona Ferro could have faced her compatriot Alizée Cornet in the next round, but the Niçoise lost in straight sets against the Chinese Shuai Zhang (6-4, 7-6 [3]).

A real disappointment for Cornet, who remained on a round of 16 at the US Open.

The only big star engaged this Thursday, the world n ° 1 Novak Djokovic still wandered, crushing the poor Lithuanian Ricardas Berankis (66th) in three sets (6-1, 6-2, 6-2) and barely 1:23.

The big match of the day, to applaud the thousands of empty seats on the Suzanne-Lenglen court, pitted the great Canadian hope Denis Shapovalov (11th) against the Spaniard Roberto Carballes (101st).

Against all expectations, it was the second who won (7-5, 6-7 [5], 6-3, 3-6, 8-6) after a five-hour showdown.
