Roland Garros 2020 - Day 6 Men’s Singles

Day Six of Roland Garros 2020, and the only remaining man from France, wildcard Hugo Gaston, ranked 239 in the world, defeated 2015 champion Stan Wawrinka (16) in five fascinating sets. Gaston amazingly took the decider 6-0, to the delight of the small amount of Parisians allowed to witness the match.

The next assignment for Hugo isn’t particularly easy - finalist for the last two years, Dominic Thiem.
