The game of Tennis - A sinful player triumphs in the first round contest of the French Open.

Jannik Sinner, the Italian tennis sensation, made it to the second round of the French Open following a three-week absence due to a hip injury. He handily defeated American Christopher Eubanks on Court Suzanne Lenglen in straight sets (6-3, 6-3, 6-4). Sinner's next opponent is Richard Gasquet, a French wildcard holder. Surprisingly, even though Sinner won in each of these sets, he didn't exhibit his usual top form. He was visibly struggling while chasing down Eubanks' shots. However, the Australian Open champ managed to save himself during complicated moments by using his bombastic serve.

Prior to the match, Sinner assured that his hip issues no longer caused any concerns. Yet, he also admitted that his overall physique wasn't as strong as he wished it could be in such a short time. "We can't perform miracles in just ten days before the first-round match," he reminisced.
