João Fonseca of Brazil will attempt to punch his ticket to the third round of the French Open against Frenchman Pierre-Hugues Herbert on Thursday.
Fonseca recorded his first victory at Roland Garros, sweeping Hubert Hurkacz of Poland 6-2 6-4 6-2 in the first round. The 18-year-old prodigy from Brazil overpowered the Pole from start to finish, as he racked 40 first-serve points and drilled 9 aces without conceding a service break. Fonseca is making his French Open debut and playing his second Grand Slam after also playing at the Australian Open, where he reached the second round.
Pierre-Hugues Herbert booked his spot in the second round after edging Benjamin Bonzi in a five-set showdown, 7-5 3-6 4-6 7-5 6-2. Ranked 147th in the world, Hugues-Herbert climbed from a 1-2 set hole by coming out on top of every significant rally in the fourth and five sets. Hugues-Herbert is a wild card entry in this year’s Roland Garros.

Our Joao Fonseca vs Pierre-Hugues Herbert Prediction
Why you should bet on João Fonseca to cover -7.5 games: Fonseca is off to a sizzling start in his French Open debut, posting a tremendous three-set victory over Hubert Hurkacz, who had finished runner-up to Novak Djokovic in Geneva. Despite an uneventful French Open buildup, the 18-year-old Brazil surprised everybody, including Hurkacz, with fantastic shot-making and killer instinct that were missing during his run in other clay-court tournaments this year. Pierre Hugues-Herbert will be giving his best shot in front of his countrymen, but I just don’t see him as a threat to Fonseca, who appears to be peaking at the right time.
