While he seemed to have inherited an easy first round for his third participation, the Pole made life difficult for himself against Leandro Riedi. The world number 11 was surprised in the first set when he was broken early (6-4). He had to wait until 3-3 in the second set to see Hubert Hurkacz start the machine and finally manage the end of his match. He will face Mikael Ymer in the next round, who qualified without playing on Thursday after David Goffin withdrew at the last minute due to discomfort in his left knee.
