Marin Cilic (n°20) made short work 6-2, 6-3, 6-2 in 1h44 from Daniil Medvedev (n°2) in the round of 16 at Roland-Garros. Taken aback, taken aback, without reaction, Daniil Medvedev, helpless, watched the games go by. He collected unforced errors (28) and opened wide the doors of the quarter-finals to Marin Cilic evolving on a cloud (5 aces; 90% of points scored on his 1st service; 33 winning shots; 5 break points converted on 7). The Croatian will be opposed, for a place in the semi-finals at Roland-Garros, to the Russian Andrey Rublev. A player he beat twice in six confrontations who should offer more resistance than Daniil Medvedev, disgusted, totally out of it, passenger of a one-sided round of 16.
