The 2ᵉ day of the Greenweez Paris Major 2023 was trying for the French players. Of the 10 French people entered this morning, only Léa Godallier managed to continue the adventure at Roland-Garros.

Max Moreau and Mauro Salandro started the day with a qualifying final hoping to enter the main draw of the Major Parisien. They were facing the Spanish pair composed of Jimenez Casa and Hernandez Quesada. The number 8 seed in qualifying is upset. Moreau and Salandra win the second set. But they lost in 3 sets: 6/1, 4/6, 6/1.

Wendy Barsotti and Elodie Invernon, recipients of a wild card for the main draw of the GPM, honored this invitation by offering a good resistance. However, the Spanish pair Fassio/Rodriguez Abajo proved to be a cut above and won the match in two sets: 6/3, 6/3.

Another defeat by the same score was recorded by the Franco-Brazilian pair, Jérémy Scatena and Francisco Gomes, against Icardo and Moya. Jérémy had warned the day before: when Jesus Moya is in great shape, countering him becomes difficult. This assertion was confirmed in the afternoon on the Philippe-Chatrier court, with a defeat for Scatena / Gomes: 6/3, 6/3.

The biggest regret of the day undoubtedly goes to Adrien Maigret and Jérôme Inzerillo. They suffered a defeat in the tie break of the 3rd set despite a match point in their favor at 5/3 30/40 in this same set. They were opposed to Adria Mercadal and Ruben Rivera. Final score: 6/4, 6/7, 7/6.

Bastien Blanqué and Dylan Guichard did not create a surprise against the Spanish pair Zapata / Sans. They dominated the game from start to finish. The French lost in two sets: 6/3, 6/1.

Thomas Leygue and his partner Ferran Insa, despite a promising start to the match and winning the first set against the Hispano-Chilean pair Valdes/Sanchez, finally lost in three sets: 4/6, 6/4, 6/2.

However, Léa Godallier and Eli Amatriain won in straight sets, 7/6 6/3, against the Spanish pair Blanco/Rojo/Gomez Rivas. This is the good news of the day. They therefore reach the 2nd round of the main draw and join Alix Collombon and Lorena Rufo (bye to the first round). Léa and Eli will therefore have a day off tomorrow.

Tomorrow, following the 32ᵉ finals: the French pair Ginier / Pothier will seek to triumph over Caparros / Navarro. In addition, Tison / Mena will face Alba / Marcos in a match that promises to be tight. These two matches are scheduled on the Philippe-Chatrier court, at 14:30 p.m. for the ladies' match and 16 p.m. for the men's match.
