Roger-Vasselin / Siegemund: “We deserved it”
Edouard Roger-Vasselin and Laura Siegemund were of course very happy after their victory in the mixed doubles final, they who had never played together before this tournament and who decided only 2 hours before their registration.
Already winner of the French Open in men’s doubles with his compatriot Julien Benneteau in 2014, Edouard Roger-Vasselin adds a title to his list of achievements. Retired from singles, the 40-year-old has now devoted himself to doubles since 2016.
