Bernard Tomic set a clash with fourth seed Stan Wawrinka as he dismissed Fabio Fognini 6-3, 6-2 in 56 minutes. The Australian is at a career-high World No. 18 in the Emirates ATP Rankings after compiling a 40-26 mark in 2015, highlighted by capturing his third ATP World Tour title in Bogota (d. Mannarino).

Eighth seed David Ferrer will open his campaign against Alexandr Dolgopolov, who defeated Jiri Vesely 6-3, 7-6(6) in 81 minutes. Meanwhile, Andreas Seppi will take on last week’s Basel champion, Roger Federer, after beating Pablo Cuevas 7-5, 6-3, and Thomaz Bellucci will challenge World No. 1 Novak Djokovic after dismissing Teymuraz Gabashvili 6-4, 6-4.

Grigor Dimitrov never faced a break point in downing Pablo Carreno Busta 6-4, 6-1 in one hour and seven minutes, totaling six aces with one double fault.

Also advancing on Monday in Paris were qualifier Dusan Lajovic (d. Nicolas Mahut 7-5, 6-3) and Aljaz Bedene (d. Marcel Granollers 7-5, 7-6(4).

 

Doubles Report: Nestor In Record Territory
