Fognini did his best to unsettle Tsonga with his histrionics and whipping shots, but the fifth-seeded Frenchman managed to stay focused even though he dropped his serve five times.Despite the humid conditions on Court Philippe Chatrier, Tsonga, the last Frenchman to reach a grand slam final, at the 2008 Australian Open, had too much power for the world number 45.Fognini berated the umpire and the partisan crowd following a few close calls, but Tsonga kept his composure to end his opponent's resilience with an ace and set up a last-16 meeting with either compatriot Gilles Simon or Switzerland's Stanislas Wawrinka.(Reporting by Julien Pretot; Editing by Pritha Sarkar)...World number one Victoria Azarenka put on yet another display of power as she beat Canada's Aleksandra Wozniak 6-4 6-4 in a one-dimensional third-round match at the ...
