Thanasi Kokkinakis has yet to lose a match this year. Mind you, he has only played four matches and on Wednesday, the Australian faces Pablo Carreno Busta in the second round at Roland Garros. Busta had a big win in round one and our prediction is he can follow that up with another victory.
Either 21st seed Alejandro Davidovich Fokina or unseeded Thiago Agustin Tiirante will be faced next.
Kokkinakis is yet to get past round two of a tournament in 2026. He did reach round two in Adelaide four months ago but injury then kept him out until two weeks ago. Round one of this outdoor clay court Grand Slam saw the 30-year-old have to come from 2-1 down to beat Terence Atmane.
The win has taken Kokkinakis to 521st in the live rankings but he's been as high as 65.
Pablo Carreno Busta has twice made it to the last eight at Roland Garros but not since 2020. He has a 14-4 clay court record this season with one Challenger Tour ttle won and another final reached. A win here will take him into round three of an ATP Tour clay court event for the first time this year.
Round one produced an impressive straight sets victory over 12th seed Jiri Lehecka.
