Top 5 Photos: French Open cloud coverage, Sakkari's shadow
The best captured moments from Day 3 at Roland Garros.
Amidst daunting cloud cover in Paris Tuesday, the drama carried over to the grounds of Roland Garros. These five photos help sum up the action from Day 3.
1. Gloomy clouds rolled in over the courts, causing many to wonder if their day out would be interrupted. Showers came and went but fans and players managed to avoid lengthly delays.
2. World No. 1 Naomi Osaka escaped losing a first-round shocker, but not without moments of frustration: she overcame 38 unforced errors (to 36 winners) to turn the tide against Anna Karolina Schmiedlova, 0-6, 7-6 (4), 6-1.
3. Juan Martin del Potro shook off a slow start, not having "much energy" in the first set. He battled unfavorable weather conditions to serve up a four-set victory over Nicolas Jarry.
4. Fernando Verdasco's final shot painted the line to end Dan Evans' clay-court season.
5. Maria Sakkari lurks in the shadows as play stretches into the evening. The Greek dismantled Anna Tatishvili in commanding fashion, dropping just one game.
