Jurij Rodionov is still missing a victory for a place in the French Open main field

Rodionov is only missing one victory for his first entry into a main field of a Grand Slam tournament. And it is precisely this victory that he may have to work out against a compatriot: Sebastian Ofner could wait in the qualifying final. So the Styrian prevails against Elias Ymer from Sweden.

In any case, an Austrian duel awaits the women: After her smooth 6: 2, 6: 1 win against Alexandra Kiick, Julia Grabher will play against Barbara Haas in the second qualifying round.

US Open Champions Dominic Thiem and Dennis Novak are already firmly in the main field, whose matches will start on Sunday. The draw will take place on Thursday evening in Paris.
