French Open 2016: Tsonga fights back to beat Baghdatis – day five as it happened!

And with that done, we’re wrapping up the blog here. No shocks today, I’m afraid, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Serena Williams all going through. I’ll be back tomorrow with live coverage of Andy Murray v Ivo Karlovic. Thanks for reading. Bye.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga breaks again and he’ll serve for the match at 5-2. What a turnaround. The crowd is fully behind him now.

Venus Williams has won the first set 6-2 against Louisa Chirico. And David Ferrer, predictably, is battling. Juan Monaco served for the first set at 5-4, but Ferrer has broken back.

Andy Murray will be second on Suzanne-Lenglen tomorrow, taking on Croatian ace machine Ivo Karlovic.

Tsonga leads by a break in the fifth set. Meanwhile David Ferrer, the 11th seed, is on the brink of losing the first set to Juan Monaco, who is serving at 5-4 after breaking to love.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga has forced a fifth set! He’s won the fourth 6-2 and Marcos Baghdatis is in trouble now. The outlook has changed dramatically in the past hour or so.

Alize Cornet is enjoying herself out on Court 2, where she leads by a set and a break against Tatjana Maria. Venus Williams is also in action against fellow American Louisa Chirico and she leads by a break in the first set.

Tsonga breaks in the fourth set! And finally the French fans are making some noise. They’re not easily pleased. But they’re cheering now that Tsonga, fighting back from two sets down, has a 3-2 lead.

Maybe not. Duque-Marino has broken back against Keys. Ignore me.

Madison Keys, a finalist in Rome last week, is already a break up against Mariana Duque-Mariño. Could this be her breakthrough tournament? Meanwhile Nicolas Almagro will indeed face David Goffin next after his 6-4, 6-4, 6-3 win over Jiri Vesely.

The French fans are more into this now! Though they’re not going too wild. Jo-Wilfried Tsonga has won the third set 6-3 but Marcos Baghdatis, who seemed to be conserving energy throughout that set, leads 7-6, 6-3, 3-6.

David Goffin is through to the third round after a 7-5, 6-1, 6-4 win over Carlos Berlocq. The 12th seed did well to recover from a break down in the third set and he’ll face Jiri Vesely or Nicolas Almagro next. It’s probably going to be Almagro given that the Spaniard is up by two sets. They do love clay, those Spaniards.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga is mounting a comeback, 4-1 up in the third set, and it’s Baghdatis who’s looking tired now. Meanwhile Daria Kastakina is pushing for victory in the third set against Virgine Razzano. The 29th seed leads 4-2.

Apologies for the lack of widespread updates. I’m having trouble accessing matches away from Philippe-Chatrier at the moment.

It’s so cool from Marcos Baghdatis, rolling back the years to hold to love and take a two-set lead over Jo-Wilfried Tsonga with an array of lovely winners. He’s up 7-6, 6-3 and it’s looking like an ignominious exit for Tsonga in his home slam.

Sheer brilliance from Baghdatis earns him a break for 5-3! He had Tsonga on a string throughout the final point of that game, dragging him forward with a delicate drop shot and then punching a volley away. The Cypriot will serve for a two-set lead and the French fans are bristling with disappointment.

It’s very flat on Philippe-Chatrier. The home fans are giving Jo-Wilfried Tsonga minimal backing. Music to the ears of Marcos Baghdatis, who leads 4-3 in the second set with Tsonga serving.

Rafael Nadal will play a fellow Spaniard in the third round. Trailing 6-3, 6-2, 1-0 on Court 2, Nicolas Mahut has retired with an injury, handing victory to Marcel Granollers.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga had opportunities to take a 3-0 lead in the second set. He squandered them. Now a revitalised Baghdatis breaks back with a gorgeous forehand pass for 2-2.

I suspect that Serena Williams isn’t going to be on court for too long. Famous last words and all that but she’s already two breaks up against Pereira.

The world No1 left Suzanne-Lenglen. The world No1 is on Suzanne-Lenglen. Novak Djokovic departs, Serena Williams arrives. She’s taking on Brazil’s Teliana Pereira, the world No81.

The trainer has come and gone. But Baghdatis, struggling with his a cut on his leg, is down a break at the start of the second set.

It seems that Marcos Baghdatis has called the trainer because of a mystery injury. Jo -Wilfried Tsonga has changed his shirt. A lot of players have been sporting this strange zebra number this week. It makes them look like they John Anderson.

Ramming a big serve into the corner, Marcos Baghdatis is in the lead. After 56 minutes of entertaining, erratic and predictably unpredictable tennis, he wins a first-set tie-break 8-6 against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, whose inconsistency counts against him. Philippe-Chatrier is silent. The Cypriot leads against the home favourite, who saw a set point come to nothing. David Goffin, meanwhile, is on his way into the third round. That’s how it looks from here, at least. The Belgian leads by a set and a break against Carlos Berlocq. Marcel Granollers is in a similar position against Nicolas mahut, while Virginie Razzano has won the first set 6-3 against 29th seed Daria Kasatkina.

Stephane Robert, 36 years old, has taken the second set 6-3 against Alex Zverev. They’re level. I blame the pigeon.

And Coric wins! He’s through to the third round, beating Bernard Tomic 3-6, 6-2, 7-6, 7-6 and he’ll play Roberto Bautista Agut next. That’s a very good win.

Borna Coric faced a set point in the fourth-set tie-break with Bernard Tomic. Now he’s got a match point...

Novak Djokovic isn’t having it all his own way. He’s just seen a break cancelled out by Steve Darcis in the third set. It’s 2-2 and they’re back on serve.

At Eastbourne last year, Agnieszka Radwanska was almost assaulted by a low-flying seagull. Now this.

“Nice stats,” says Maria Kilfoil. ‘Wow, Nadal eighth on the list of GS wins - the Big Three current players all present in that top 8, as expected – but he has by far the best GS win percentage of the list. Interesting! Vamos.”

Away from the French Open, Maria Sharapova has been included in Russia’s Olympic squad despite her ban over a positive drug test.

Marcos Baghdatis is in a cheeky, impudent mood early on against Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. He’s got a break, he’s held from 0-40 down and he’s quietened the home fans. The Cypriot is a lovely player to watch when he’s feeling it.

Roberto Bautista Agut has been in imperious form today. He’s over Villarreal’s Europa League disappointment and he’s into the third round, an emphatic 7-6, 6-4, 6-1 win over Paul-Henri Mathieu.

Personal questions are not allowed.

If you’re after entertainment, have a look at Philippe Chatrier. Marcos Baghdatis v Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. It’s bound to be a laugh.

The exciting young German, Alex Zverez, is on a mission. He’s swept to the first set, 6-1, against veteran Frenchman Stephane Robert.

Who likes stats?

Dominic Thiem is through to the third round, beating Guillermo Garcia-Lopez 7-5, 6-4, 7-6. The 13th seed could play Rafael Nadal in the fourth round. That could be a great contest.

Novak Djokovic, up a set and a break, has just angrily spanked the net with his racket after failing to reach a Darcis drop shot. What’s got under his skin?

Borna Coric has won that tie-break, taking it 7-4. It was one to forget for Bernard Tomic and Coric leads 3-6, 6-2, 7-6.

After such a brilliant first set, the match could be running away from Steve Darcis. Djokovic has secured an early break in the second set.

It’s gone to a third-set tie-break between Bernard Tomic and Borna Coric. Whoever wins it is going to be feeling very pleased with himself. It sounds like a very entertaining match over on Court 14.

There’s life yet in Facundo Bagnis, who breaks with Rafael Nadal serving for the match. It’s probably only earned him a stay of execution, though, because Nadal still leads 6-3, 6-0, 5-3.

Novak Djokovic has just ballooned a forehand into the Seine on his second set point. Consider me surprised.

Rafael Nadal is serving for the match. Roberto Bautista Agut leads 7-6, 6-4 against Paul-Henri Mathieu. Viva Espana!

I’m back! It’s all kicked off while I’ve been away. From 2-0 down early on, now Steve Darcis is serving to force a first-set tie-break against Novak Djokovic.
