French Open 2012 TV Schedule: Best Wednesday Matches to Watch
The real drama doesn't unfold at the French Open until next weekend, but that doesn't mean the tournament is void of compelling action right now.
We already witnessed a stunning upset Tuesday, when No. 5 Serena Williams was knocked off by Virginie Razzano of France in three sets.
On the men's side, there have yet to be any shockers, but there are many weekday matches worth watching before things really heat up.
Let's take a look.
TV Schedule for Wednesday, May 30 - Friday, June 1
5:00 AM - 10:00 AM ET, ESPN2,
10:00 AM - 3:00 PM ET, Tennis Channel
Men's matches to watch
No. 3 Roger Federer vs. Adrian Unger (11 a.m.)
Federer cruised to victory in straight sets in his first-round match with Tobias Kamke, and Ungur completed an impressive defeat of David Nalbandian in four sets.
No. 1 Novak Djokovic vs. Blaz Kavcic (11 a.m.)
Djokovic's second-round opponent dispatched the always testy Aussie Lleyton Hewitt in four sets. Still, he's no match for the world's No. 1.
No. 9 Juan Martin Del Potro vs. Edouard Roger-Vasselin (11 a.m.)
Del Potro was challenged by Albert Montanes, but emerged in four sets in Round 1. Roger-Vasselin won three-straight sets after losing the opener to Vasek Pospisil.
Women's matches to watch
No. 1 Victoria Azarenka vs. Dinah Pfizenmaier (11 a.m.)
Azarenka received a scare from Alberta Brianti when the underdog took the first set, but the world's No. 1 took care of business after that, winning two straight. Pfizenmaier beat Caroline Garcia in three sets to start her French Open.
No. 3 Agnieszka Radwanska vs. Venus Williams (11 a.m.)
Radwanska steamrolled Bojana Jovanovski 6-1, 6-0 in the opening round. While her sister crumbled, Venus battled back to win the last two sets against Paula Ormaechea.
Irina Falconi vs. No. 6 Samantha Stosur
Stosur made quick work of Elena Baltacha, winning 6-4, 6-0. Falconi beat Edina Gallovits-Hall in three sets.
