Grand Slam champions Marketa Vondrousova and Bianca Andreescu maneuvered through topsy-turvy three-setters to reach the Roland Garros third round on Thursday, but former Roland Garros champion Jelena Ostapenko was knocked out. No.5 seed Vondrousova of the Czech Republic outlasted American qualifier Katie Volynets 0-6, 6-1, 6-4. Vondrousova will face French wild card Chloe Paquet in the third round. Another upset saw No.9 seed Ostapenko fall to Clara Tauson in a tight three-setter. Tauson will now face Sofia Kenin in the next round. Andreescu, the 2019 US Open champion, battled back to defeat Anna Kalinskaya. Andreescu will play Jasmine Paolini in the third round.
