Daily Dose of Social Media: From Parisian rides to heartfelt embraces – Djokovic and Fils take the spotlight

Nole on Wheels: Djokovic spotted cycling Paris

Novak Djokovic was spotted cycling through the streets of Paris on Wednesday afternoon, a moment that went viral on social media on Thursday. The 24-time Grand Slam champion used his day off – before facing Corentin Moutet – and was seen casually pedaling through the streets of Paris. A social media user encountered him, greeting the three-time French Open champion as he rode by relaxed.

On Thursday, Djokovic returned to the court to face local talent Corentin Moutet, securing a 6-2, 6-3, 7-6(1) victory in a very entertaining match for the home crowd. The former world No. 1 extends his winning streak to six consecutive victories and awaits his third-round match against Austrian Filip Misolic. To be played on Saturday, Nole continues his quest for his 25th Grand Slam and has been impeccable in his level so far.

Family first: Emotional Fonseca celebrates first Grand Slam R3

Brazilian Joao Fonseca secured his second consecutive victory at the French Open, defeating local player Pierre-Hugues Herbert in straight sets (7-6, 7-6, 6-4), and showed his full emotion after the win, shedding tears after the unexpected presence of his maternal grandmother, Ana, who arrived by surprise to witness her 18-year-old grandson's victory. The South American star advanced to the third round of a Grand Slam for the first time and is still waiting to find out his opponent, who will be the winner between Gael Monfils and world No. 5 Jack Draper.

Fonseca had to take a few minutes before he could respond to the post-match on-court interview, where he explained the reason for his emotion. "Today it's my mother's birthday. I think I got more emotional after seeing her crying as she entered the court to thank me."

"I'd like to thank all the supporters that have been following me and believing in me. I think there was a lot of pressure on me over the last few games, so I can only thank my family and my team for helping me. This is a very difficult sport, but I’m young and I’m enjoying every moment."

"I'm proud of how I handled the pressure. That was probably why I got emotional. I've had some tough tournaments before, and only us players really understand what we go through. Especially young players coming up, the pressure can be heavy even though it’s partly positive."

Love on Court: Badosa and Tsitsipas Share Tender Moment After French Open Win

Paula Badosa and Stefanos Tsitsipas showed their affection after the Spaniard secured a notable victory in the second round of the French Open. The Greek was waiting for her outside the court to be the first to embrace her after a win that was more complicated than it initially seemed, coming back from a set down against Elena-Gabriela Ruse to advance to the third round with a 3-6, 6-4, 6-4 score. The world No. 10 was far from her best level, committing double faults and unforced errors, but ultimately pulled off the win through sheer fight and determination.

Keeping a close eye on everything happening on Court Simonne-Mathieu was her boyfriend, Stefanos Tsitsipas, who was eliminated in the second round of the tournament by Matteo Gigante and will fall out of the top-20 for the first time in seven years once the tournament concludes. Nevertheless, the Greek was the first to be there to hug and celebrate with Badosa her victory, which sends her to the third round of the women's draw. Her next opponent will be Australian Daria Kasatkina, who just eliminated local favorite Leolia Jeanjean 6-4, 6-2.
