Prizmic in control right now with 2 sets up lead. He is playing with a lot of confidence recently and having some kind of a breakthrough moment. This is still far from over.
Both players appear not to be suffering in the heat? in Mensiks match he collapsed after he won and the medical staff had to come to his aid, he had nothing left, he finally got to his feet, they had a wheel chair for him just in case

I've seen it when I searched for streams to watch Prizmic. I've seen medical stuff and Mensik looking like he was beaten up or something. I guess that's what almost 5 hours of tennis on clay does to a human.

Playing in the heat in 5 sets on clay is brutal, these high temps in May in Paris is very unusual, I hope Mensik can recover physically,

Yes, this Brazilian crowd is a nightmare for the opponents, but sometimes doesn't help Fonzie too. Like in Rome..

I feel this match could go to distance from here.

Atmospehere is mostly great on these smaller courts, like this one Court 14. and Simone Mathieu.

Fonzie needs to hold here.
Fonseca holds after facing BPs leads 4-1

Fonseca wins the 3rd set, 63, didnt panic, Prizmic had a slight dip, Fonseca kept a good level
Going 4 sets, Prizmic leads 2 sets to 1
I am really enjoying this match and I expect to see these 2 youngsters playing each other in the future
Also this court is in shade now, helpful for the players not playing in heat.

Cruel net cord for Prizmic and Fonseca breaks early in the 4th set
Good change up with the serve from Fonseca saving a BP
