PARIS (Reuters) - Three-times French Open champion Mats Wilander hit out at Roland Garros officials after the day's highlight match on Monday between Alexander Zverev and Fernando Verdasco was halted early in the evening, leaving fans wolf-whistling and disappointed.

The match was finely balanced at one set all when German Zverev and his more experienced opponent appeared to question the conditions in Paris, where drizzle had earlier fallen and the light was starting to fade.
