Croatia's 40-year-old tennis player Ivo Karlovic has become the oldest player to win a match at French open since Torben Ulrich (44) in 1973. Karlovic defeated 37-year-old Feliciano Lopez 7-6(4), 7-5, 6-7(7), 7-5 in three hours and six minutes to reach the second round at Roland Garros for the sixth time. "It means a lot," Karlovic said about his record.
