After two weeks of rain and a week of floods, Roland Garros finally stumbled onto high ground on Friday. The four favored players in the singles semifinals did what they were supposed to do—turn in winning, and mostly outstanding, performances—to set up a strong pair of finals for the weekend. I won’t go so far as to call them “dream finals,” but they’re the best the tournament could get. Here’s a quick look back at how each of the four winners made it there. They played some good tennis to do it.
