Stefanos Tsitsipas and Daniil Medvedev knocked out – day nine at the French Open
Danish teenager Holger Rune stunned Greek fourth seed and last year’s runner-up Stefanos Tsitsipas.
Second seed Daniil Medvedev was also a surprise casualty, in straight sets to Croatian veteran Marin Cilic.
World number one Iga Swiatek dropped a set for the first time at the tournament but got past Chinese teenager Zheng Qinwen in three.
