Hard blow for the Italian Jannik Sinner. While he had ideally started his round of 16 at Roland-Garros by winning the first round against Andrey Rublev (1-6), he was unable to continue his momentum. Touched in the left knee, Sinner first saw the second set escape him (4-6), before being forced to retire two games later. Rublev will face in the quarterfinals the winner of the duel between Medvedev and Cilic, which will take place this Monday evening.
