In the second round of the women’s French Open, Iga Swiatek defeated American Claire Liu in straight sets, thus reaching No. 32. On the men’s side, Casper Ruud could also continue into the third round after losing the match.

Swiatek hit 24 winners against Lei’s 12, and although the world number one pole made more unforced errors, he hit a much higher percentage of his serve – first and second. Swatik will play China’s Wang Hsien Guo in the next round.
In the men’s category, Casper Ruud also qualified as a challenger, although the fourth-seeded Norwegian lost a set to Julio Zippieri.
Junk Sener’s farewell was a surprise. The eighth-seeded Italian lost to Germany’s Daniel Altmaier in a five-and-a-half-hour battle.
