Alfie Hewett has advanced to the quarter-finals of the men's wheelchair singles at the French Open after a decisive victory over Guilhem Laget. Hewett, 28, displayed his prowess on Court Suzanne Lenglen, winning the match 6-3, 6-0, despite a rain delay that moved the match in Paris.

The 10-time Grand Slam champion has previously claimed the French Open title three times, with his last win coming in 2021. He is set to face Ji Zhenxu from China for a spot in the semi-finals later this week.

In contrast, fellow Briton Gordon Reid, aged 34, faced a disappointing exit, losing his first-round match to Tokito Oda, an eight-time Grand Slam champion, with a score of 6-2, 6-4. This marks a significant moment for Reid, as it is the first time he has not reached at least the quarter-finals at Roland Garros since his debut in 2013.

Reid is scheduled to return to the court alongside Hewett in the men's wheelchair doubles on Wednesday, where they will compete against French-Brazilian duo Frederic Cattaneo and Daniel Rodrigues. The British pair has dominated the event, winning the last six editions of the men’s wheelchair doubles in Paris.

Tokito Oda has emerged as a formidable player in men's wheelchair singles, securing four consecutive Grand Slam titles and aiming for his fourth straight French Open victory after winning Paralympic gold on the same clay surface in 2024.

In the mixed doubles, Neal Skupski and his American partner Desirae Krawczyk were eliminated in the quarter-finals, falling to Laura Siegemund and Edouard Roger-Vasselin with a close score of 7-6 (7-5), 7-5.
