Meanwhile, it was business as usual for top seed Daniil Medvedev - who dispatched Arthur Rindeknech in straight sets to reach the Round of 32. Nick Kyrgios, Casper Ruud, Tommy Paul, Karen Khachanov, Matteo Berrettini and 2012 winner Andy Murray were some of the other players who passed the second-round hurdle. In the women's draw, sentimental favorite Williams was also through to the next round. Other players who did so include Ons Jabeur, Coco Gauff, Madison Keys, Alison Riske and Caroline Garcia.
