Regnoväder orsakar nya förseningar i Franska öppna-kvalet i Paris

Kraftigt regn tvingade fram ytterligare uppskjutningar under den andra dagen av kvalet till Franska öppna 2026 på Roland Garros, efter liknande avbrott under premiärdagen. De flesta utomhusbanor förblev ospelbara fram till åtminstone kl. 10.30 lokal tid medan turneringspersonal avlägsnade stående vatten.

Funktionärer meddelade att alla matcher förutom de på Court Suzanne-Lenglen avbröts efter att nattens regn gjort gruset dyngsurt. Den enda match som kunde fortsätta under taket var den mellan Daphnee Mpetshi Perricard och Bianca Andreescu.
