Easy does it for Alexander Zverev. The second seed beats Benjamin Bonzi 6-3, 6-4, 6-2 to advance to the second round. Zverev will face Tomas Machac, who defeated Zizou Bergs in his opener.

Nuno Borges is leading 6-3, 6-4, 3-2 against Tomas Martin Etcheverry in the preceding clash on Court 13. Borges is three games away from winning the first-round encounter, and if he does, Raducanu and Sierra will take the court soon after.

The preceding match concludes, with Nuno Borges completing a comfortable straight-sets victory over Tomas Martin Etcheverry. Emma Raducanu and Solana Sierra arrive on Court 13, and the first set is underway. The Briton is serving first.

It's a disappointing start to the first set for Emma Raducanu, who has her service broken twice to go down 0-3. Solana Sierra is serving to make it 4-0 currently, an advantage too big to overturn unless the Briton produces an extraordinary comeback.

It's a horrid start to Raducanu's French Open campaign as she is bageled in the first set. Sierra refuses to let up with her clinical strokeplay, making best use of her clay court expertise to take the opening set 6-0. Can the Briton fight back to stay alive! We shall soon find out.

Raducanu finally manages to claim her first game but that's about it, as Sierra surges to a 4-1 lead in the second set. The Argentine is two games away from upsetting the British number one in the first round!

Quite a fightback from Raducanu! She has gone from 1-4 down to 6-6 in the second set and has forced a tiebreaker. The Briton had lost the first set and must win this one to avoid a first-round exit at Roland Garros.

Sierra shines bright! True to form, the Argentine world number 68 keeps up her strong clay run to knock out Raducanu 6-0, 7-6 (4) in the first round. The Briton did try to claw her way back in the second set, but could not come good in the tiebreaker and has to leave Paris early.
