Julia Grabher is unfortunately not in the main field in Paris

Julia Grabher left a great chance in the qualifying final in Roland Garros on Friday. Grabher led against Haley Baptiste 6: 3 and 4: 1, so seemed on the best way to fight for a place in the main field of the second major in 2021. After that, however, the Austrian completely lost the thread, lost the second set 5: 7 and did not find her way back on track. Even if Grabher started one last attack in the third set.

Thus, the French Open 2021 will take place for women without Austrian participation, for the men, Dominic Thiem is only one representative in the main field. The world number four starts against Pablo Andujar from Spain.
