Ninth seed Taylor Fritz and unseeded Arthur Rinderknech will face off in the second round at the French Open on Thursday. The winner of this match will advance to play either 23rd seed Francisco Cerundolo or lucky loser Yannick Hanfmann in the third round. Rinderknech defeated compatriot Richard Gasquet 3-1 in the first round to claim his first-ever win at Roland Garros. Even with the win, the Frenchman is down three places in the live ranking to number 81. Rinderknech had lost all his previous three matches at the French Open before beating Gasquet. He will hope this winning start grants him a sustained tournament in his bid to turn around his season. Rinderknech is currently on a losing record with 12 losses from the 20 matches he has so far played.

Taylor Fritz is in fine form this season. He comes into this game having won 30 of the 41 matches he has played. He dominated compatriot Michael Mmoh in the first round for his latest win. The American dropped only four games in the 3-0 win. This was his 10th win in 15 matches on clay this season. His form on the surface this term should have him confident of at least setting a new personal record here. The world number eight has never gone past the third round in Paris and has only once progressed past the second round.
