  + stars: | 2023-10-30 | by ( ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +2 min
Murray lost his serve in the opening game of the match, but came back to lead 5-4 before De Minaur won the opening set in a tiebreak. The Briton took the second set and at 5-2 up in the decider, looked set for victory. Despite serving twice for the match, Murray lost momentum as De Minaur's comeback saw him break his opponents serve three times winning the last five games to claim victory in the battle which lasted three hours. Murray smashed his racquet in frustration after the agonising loss, and he has yet to win a match in this competition since winning the tournament in 2016. Alejandro Davidovich Fokina defeated 15th seed Ben Shelton, the Spaniard overcoming the American 7-6(4) 5-7 6-3, while Karen Khachanov recorded a routine win over Max Purcell, the 16th seed Russian winning 6-4 6-4 against the Australian.

[1/3] Tennis - French Open - Roland Garros, Paris, France - May 30, 2023 France's Gael Monfils reacts during his first round match against Argentina's Sebastian Baez REUTERS/Lisi NiesnerMay 31 (Reuters) - An exhausted Gael Monfils said his epic five-set comeback victory over Sebastian Baez at the French Open on Tuesday was one of the greatest matches of his career. Monfils, who reached a career-high sixth in the world in 2016, last appeared at a Grand Slam in the 2022 Australian Open quarter-finals before missing much of last season due to heel surgery. "It's definitely in like top two (matches in my career)," Monfils said at his press conference after the match ended after midnight. I'm older and (had) even less chances to win this match today. "I'm playing full adrenaline, like honestly I asked the crowd to scream and somehow I juice up," he added.
