However, Ymer has rediscovered his form in Paris, reaching the third round for a second successive season.Holger Rune, just 19, faces 21-year-old Hugo Gaston. In stark contrast, 37-year-old Gilles Simon of France, playing on the tour for the final year, faces former US Open champion Marin Cilic, 33.
Women's world number one Swiatek, bidding for a second French Open title after her 2020 triumph, has put together a 30-match winning run and has dropped just four games in two rounds so far.
