Lorenzo Musetti, world number 8 (but as of tomorrow he will be number 7), easily passed the first round of Roland Garros by beating German Yannick Hanfmann, number 137, with the score of 7-5 6-2 6-0.

There was balance only in the first set, when the first break point was saved by Hanfmann at 3-3, but at 5-5 on the second attempt Musetti snatched the serve from him and closed on the second set point by holding serve at 15.

Hanfmann saves another break point in the third game of the second set going to lead 21, but from this point he does not win a single one.

The match ended with Musetti not conceding a single break ball and going only once to the advantages on his own serve. A very convincing debut then for the 23-year-old from Carrara.
