Former Grand Slam: Former Grand Slam champions and experienced tour regulars negotiated a rain-hit day of qualifying at the French Open on Tuesday, with Bianca Andreescu and Karolina Pliskova among the notable names advancing into the next round in Paris.

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’s Viktoria Hruncakova.

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’s Ku Yeon-woo before regrouping to storm back for a 0-6, 6-3, 6-1 victory.
