PARIS — Milos Raonic has advanced to the second round of the French Open with a 6-3, 6-2, 7-6 (5) win over Janko Tipsarevic on Monday.
Raonic, from Thornhill, Ont., fired 10 aces in the straight-sets win and had 15 break-point attempts against his Serbian opponent, converting four of them.
The eighth-seeded Canadian also hit into five double faults and had 28 unforced errors in a match delayed a day by rain in Paris. Tipsarevic had 29 unforced errors.
Raonic will next face France's Adrian Mannarino, who advanced with a 6-4, 2-6, 6-2, 6-4 win over Mikhail Kukushkin of Kazakhstan. It will be the first meeting on the ATP Tour between Raonic and Mannarino.
Raonic advanced to the quarter-finals at Roland Garros in 2014, and missed last year's French Open with an injury.
