Former Top 10 Star Pouille Qualifies For Roland Garros

Spoiler:

Two #NextGenATP players, Medjedovic and Shang, qualify
Former Top 10 star Lucas Pouille will make his return to Grand Slam main draw action after successfully qualifying for Roland Garros.

The Frenchman, currently No. 670 in the Pepperstone ATP Rankings, rallied past Austrian Jurij Rodionov 1-6, 7-5, 6-0 on Thursday to earn his place in the main draw.

It is the first time Pouille has won three consecutive matches at any level since September 2021. The 29-year-old thrilled his home fans with a nearly flawless third set in which he broke his opponent’s serve three times and did not face a break point himself.

Przepiękny moment w karierze Luki. Wrócił zza światów, nawet jeżeli ma to oznaczać tylko przejście tych kwalifikacji.

The Pouille Renaissance Continues At Roland Garros

Spoiler:

No. 1 Frenchman Humbert also advances
This year’s Roland Garros is proving a renaissance for Lucas Pouille.

No. 675 in the Pepperstone ATP Rankings, the Frenchman entered the tournament far from the level with which he once cracked the world’s Top 10. But inspired by his home crowd, the 29-year-old has shown he has plenty of top-level tennis left in him.

Pouille defeated Austrian lucky loser Jurij Rodionov 6-2, 6-4, 6-3 on Sunday to reach the second round. The Frenchman is the lowest-ranked player to win a first-round match at Roland Garros since World No. 762 Pablo Cuevas in 2013.

Pouille qualified for the main draw on Thursday when he rallied past Rodionov. The Austrian was given a second chance to oust the home favourite when he moved into the draw as a lucky loser, but was unable to overcome the five-time ATP Tour titlist.

"It was special. It was the first time for me that I was playing against the same opponent in three days in the same tournament," Pouille said. "I was quite stressed when I saw the draw, but then I realised also that it was a good draw. Good first round in Roland Garros when you see Alcaraz playing a qualifier or Medvedev or some other player.

"I sais, 'Okay, you beat him in the qualies, so he is afraid of you, and just take this advantage for you and just give 100 percent, and you'll see.'"

After the 2019 Australian Open semi-finalist sealed his victory in one hour and 56 minutes, he sang La Marseillaise in unison with the crowd. The moment will be one of the most memorable of the tournament.
