The Latest: Play Resumes at the French Open

___

2:10 p.m.

Play has resumed at the French Open after a rain delay of 2 hours, 40 minutes.

Cheers could be heard from fans on center court and the ball boys smiled as the court covers came off and the players walked back out.

As they waited to come out, the 19th-seeded Elina Svitolina of Ukraine and local hope Alize Cornet kept busy.

Cornet jogged up and down on the spot while Svitolina did some stretching.

Cornet, who is seeded 29th and playing in the fourth round for the first time, lost the first point and now trails 4-0 in the first set.
