The stands gradually filled up, giving way to a permanent hubbub, punctuated by encouragement and shouts of intense fervor. Particularly for Quentin Halys, cheered by the youngest spectators, whose name resonated even off the court. Before the Frenchman retired after conceding the first set (7-6 [7], 2-0 ab).
On the Rublev match side, the atmosphere was a little more moderate. On several occasions, the referee had to call the somewhat excited little fans to order: “Children, once again, silence, please”. Despite everything, the fervor was still present, with deserved applause, saluting the performance of the Russian player, who won thanks to incredible precision (6-4, 6-3).
A lively Wednesday
In the stands, yellow dots stretch as far as the eye can see. Tennis ball in hand, it's a competition to see who will have the most signatures possible. Between sets, the court turns into a real playground. Between a rain of paper planes invading the room and children wandering in all directions.
On Wednesdays at the Open Occitanie, it's a joyful bazaar where a friendly atmosphere reigns. “We mainly come for the children, it's Wednesday”, confided the parents who keep their children busy between matches with the many activities available on the site: “There are more people outside than in the court”.
