The heat seemed to be the main problem for the Italian at Roland Garros. Despite winning two sets and taking a 5:1 lead in the third set, last year's finalist still lost to Cerundolo.

At almost 40 degrees, Sinner had to take a medical timeout in the third set and leave the court. In the fourth and fifth sets, Sinner was only able to win one game each.
