Draper, Norrie Advance; British Women Exit Roland Garros

News summary

Jack Draper secured his first French Open main-draw win by defeating Italy's Mattia Bellucci in four sets, marking a major step in his clay-court progress. The fifth seed overcame early struggles and double faults to dominate the final sets, contributing to a historic moment where six British singles players advanced past the first round at Roland Garros for the first time since 1973. Cameron Norrie also progressed to the third round, while Katie Boulter and other British women were eliminated in the second round. Draper is set to face either Gael Monfils or Hugo Dellien in the next round. Boulter, despite recent improvement on clay, lost to Madison Keys. Draper and Norrie now remain the only British hopes in singles competition.
