PARIS — The two women’s fourth-round matches interrupted by rain on Sunday at the French Open returned to court after days of waiting on Tuesday, and the momentum reversed amid a gray sky and an intermittent drizzle.
Samantha Stosur, seeded 21st, trailed sixth-seeded Simona Halep, 3-5, in the first set when play stopped on Sunday, but she returned with newfound purpose and poise on Tuesday. In sopping conditions, Stosur was quickly able to gain the upper hand, beating Halep, 7-6 (0), 6-3 on Court 1.
