No.9 seed Stefanos Tsitsipas will go up against China’s Zhang Zhizhen in the third round of the French Open on Court Suzanne Lenglen at Roland Garros in Paris, France. Tsitsipas barged into the third round after toppling Martin Fucsovics of Hungary 7-6(7) 6-4 6-1 and Daniel Altmaier of Germany 6-3 6-2 6-7(2) 6-4. The Greek might not have the most dominant early rounds out of the group of contenders in this year’s tournament but he still got the job done by converting over 60 percent of his first serves and winning 55 percent of the second serves. Zhizhen reached the third round of the French Open for the second straight year after defeating Aleksandar Vukic of Australia 6-4 4-6 6-3 7-5 and Lorenzo Sonego of Italy 7-5 3-6 6-1 6-4. The Chinese has relied on his big serves to fire 35 aces and win 80 percent of the first serve in the first two rounds.
