| Tsonga into French Open quarter-final for the first time Jun 4th 2012, 12:09 Local favorite Jo-Wilfried Tsonga kept his eye on the prize to reach the French Open quarter-finals for the first time with a 6-4 7-6 3-6 3-6 6-4 win against Swiss 18th seed Stanislas Wawrinka on Monday. The fifth-seeded Frenchman was 4-2 up in the decider when the match was interrupted by dusk on Sunday and dropped serve when play resumed on Court Philippe Chatrier. Tsonga, the last Frenchman to reach a grand-slam final, at the 2008 Australian Open, wrapped it up by breaking Wawrinka with a forehand winner after four hours and six minutes. He will face world number one Novak Djokovic of Serbia on Tuesday for a place in the last four. (Reporting by Julien Pretot; Editing by Pritha Sarkar) | |
