Djokovic cruises to first set v Nadal

Novak Djokovic has taken the first set 6-1 against Rafael Nadal.

The Serbian, who has won everything bar an Olympic medal during his trophy-laden career, broke Nadal twice to take a 5-0 lead in the set.

Nadal, himself an Olympic champion in 2008, has been nursing a thigh injury at Roland Garros, and it was clear from the off that he wasn't moving at his best on Court Philippe Chatrier.

Djokovic had two chances to seal the first set and took it when Nadal skewed a forehand well wide.

'Never say never with Tom': Daley's husband on whether diver will compete again

Tom Daley's husband has said fans of the five-time Olympic medal-winning diver should not give up hope of seeing him compete again.

Asked whether the 30-year-old will retire after Paris, Dustin Lance Black said: "I think this might be it, but that's about as sure as I can be."

However, he said you can "never say never with Tom".

"I could never get the words out of his mouth after Tokyo that he wanted to retire so I was very suspicious the whole time," he told Sky News.

Daley decided to throw his hat back into the ring about 16 months ago.

Describing the moment that changed it all, Lance Black said the diver had seen a "beautiful film" at the US Olympic and Paralympic Museum about the spirit of the Olympian.

"Robbie was in his arms and Tom started shedding tears, which I never see of Tom," he said.

"And I said 'oh crap, we're going to another Olympics, aren't we?' and he said 'we're going to Paris'."

The director said he had seen his husband "train so hard every morning" and "when he qualified it already felt like he'd already won the Olympics in our family".

"It probably seems a bit unfair to some that he's able to throw his hat back into the ring with 16 months to go and to not only qualify but to medal and to give the Chinese a run for their money again," he said.
