Andreescu, continuing her comeback climb up the rankings, looked sharp during a straightforward 6-3, 6-2 victory over French teenager Daphnee Mpetshi Perricard. The former US Open champion, currently ranked No. 160 in the world, is attempting to secure a sixth career main-draw appearance at Roland Garros and will next face Slovakia\u2019s Viktoria Hruncakova.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Pliskova, meanwhile, produced one of the more dramatic recoveries of the day. The former world No. 1 was completely outplayed in the opening set against South Korea\u2019s Ku Yeon-woo before regrouping to storm back for a 0-6, 6-3, 6-1 victory.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The Czech veteran has been rebuilding steadily after injury setbacks derailed much of her 2025 campaign. Having started this season ranked outside the top 1,000 after prolonged leg problems, Pliskova arrived in Paris with improved momentum following recent quarterfinal appearances in Linz and Madrid.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Seeded 20th in qualifying, the 33-year-old is now aiming to reach the Roland Garros main draw for the 14th time in the past 15 seasons. She will next take on Spain\u2019s Marina Bassols Ribera.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
American third seed Ashlyn Krueger also progressed comfortably after defeating French wild card Margaux Rouvroy 6-4, 6-3, while fellow American Robin Montgomery knocked out 31st seed Maddison Inglis in straight sets. Former Wimbledon quarterfinalist Lulu Sun recovered from a set down to beat China\u2019s Ma Ye-Xin 2-6, 6-3, 6-2 and stay alive in qualifying.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
There was disappointment, however, for several teenage hopefuls. Eighteen-year-old Czech talent Laura Samson lost a marathon contest to Argentina\u2019s Julia Riera, while reigning US Open junior champion Jeline Vandromme fell in straight sets to Japan\u2019s Aoi Ito in her Grand Slam qualifying debut.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Another teenager, Serbia\u2019s Teodora Kostovic, enjoyed a far smoother outing after brushing aside Elizabeth Mandlik 6-2, 6-2.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The women\u2019s qualifying draw had already seen several notable names advance on Monday. Former Roland Garros finalist Sloane Stephens, semifinalists Tamara Zidansek and Martina Trevisan, along with Irina-Camelia Begu and former junior champion Alina Korneeva, all moved into the next round.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
