  1. Another nutty day in Paris, play just finished before dark. Archive of coverage here: stream.wsj.com/story/french-o… and here: tomperrotta.com
  2. Very funny stuff here RT @jon_wertheim Sloane Stephens into Week Two. Now leave her alone: bit.ly/KjefeC
  3. French Open-NYC connection: Mayor Bloomberg will love Sloane Stephens, into the 4th rd. and soda free: blogs.wsj.com/dailyfix/2012/… #French2012
  4. Bob Bryan's courtship of Serena Williams is off to a slow start. Down a break 6-5 1st set in mixed doubles: online.wsj.com/article/SB1000… #French2012
  5. David Goffin, who looks a tad older than 11, is into the fourth round of the French Open. Happy days for Belgium. #French2012
  6. 1 set all between Mahut & Federer. Wonder if Mahut's box is still rooting for Fed. What do you say, @Kamakshi_Tandon ? espn.go.com/tennis/french1…
  7. That crazy point between Gasquet and Dimitrov, where Gasquet vomits and Dimitrov collapses? An appreciation: blogs.wsj.com/dailyfix/2012/…
  8. Nice work from @dougrobson RT Players increasingly reconsider Twitter. "It's a very dangerous platform." usat.ly/Ldu42a
  9. UPSET ALERT: Maria Sharapova has lost her first game of the French Open (1-1 first set, second round).
  10. @SteveTignor For sure. 75 mph, that one.
  11. So tough to tell how far Sloane Stephens can go as a pro, but one thing for sure: She makes hitting a tennis ball look easy. So smooth.
  12. When I met him in Tampa last month, Isner told me he wanted to be remembered for more than the marathon. This isn't what he had in mind.
  13. My take on abolishing the endless 5th set: If you can't learn how to break serve, u deserve to be too tired for your next match. #French2012
  14. Isner-Mathieu almost done with their warm up, match will begin shortly... #French2012
  15. Isner saves triple match point. That was much, much more than a serve. Clutch.
