Sinner Eases Into French Open Second Round
Sinner, who entered on a 29-match winning streak, overpowered Frenchman Clément Tabur and moved into the second round without dropping a set.
- On Tuesday, world number one Jannik Sinner dismantled French wildcard Clement Tabur 6-1, 6-3, 6-4 at the French Open, extending his winning streak to 30 matches and advancing to the second round.
- Sinner arrived at Roland Garros on a 29-match winning streak with only three sets dropped, positioned as overwhelming favourite after two-time defending champion Carlos Alcaraz withdrew due to injury.
- The Italian wrapped up the first set in 30 minutes, losing just one game, then broke immediately to establish a 2-0 lead as his groundstrokes proved too powerful and accurate throughout.
- After squandering two match points, Sinner finally converted on his third opportunity and will face Argentinian Juan Manuel Cerundolo in the second round, saying the night session made the victory "even more special."
- Without Alcaraz in the draw, Sinner is positioned to claim his maiden French Open title on June 7, though the tournament produced upsets including 17-year-old wildcard Moise Kouame becoming the youngest Grand Slam main draw winner in 17 years.
