Round Two begins at Roland-Garros 2026 with Belinda Bencic facing Caty Mcnally. Karen Khachanov returns, and Iga Swiatek returns an hour later to play Sara Bejlek. Court 4 features Marta Kostyuk vs Katie Volynets and Joan Fonseca vs Dino Prizmic, the 20-year-old Croatian who has beaten Novak Djokovic and Ben Shelton on clay. Alex Michelsen plays Nishesh Basavareddy on Court 13, with Basavareddy having defeated Taylor Fritz. Additional matches include Elina Svitolina, Elena Rybakina, Andrey Rublev, Jasmine Paolini, Mirra Andreeva, Karolina Muchova, Hailey Baptiste, Fran Jones, Ugo Humbert vs Quentin Halys, and Casper Ruud vs Hamad Medhedovic.
"We open today with a nasty one for Belinda Bencic, the no 11 seed taking on Caty Mcnally while, at the same time Karen Kahchanov returns and, an hour later, so too does Iga Swiatek, the four-time champ facing the Czech youngster, Sara Bejlek."
"The match of the day, though, could well come on Court 4, where Marta Kostyuk meets Katie Volynets and Joan Fonseca faces Dino Prizmic, the 20-year-old Croatian who's beaten both Novak Djokovic and Ben Shelton this clay-swing."
"That said, don't be sleeping on the tussle tucked away on 13 between young Americans Alex Michelsen and Nishesh Basavareddy, conqueror of Taylor Fritz. Otherwise, we've plenty of big names getting to it Elina Svitolina, Elena Rybakina, Andrey Rubelv, Jasmine Paolini, Mirra Andreeva, Karolina Muchova, Hailey Baptiste and more."
"And if to that we add Fran Jones coming off the biggest win of her career against Bea Haddad Maia against Marie Bouzkova, Ugo Humbert v Quentin Halys and Casper Ruud v Hamad Medhedovic, we have another day of compelling Grand Slam TennisTM to elevate and enrich our existence."
