Under the zenith of the sun, Swiatek left only crumbs to his young opponent, who was entitled to honors on the Philippe-Chatrier court for his first participation in the French Open.
The 17-year-old Australian still twice took the service of the 24-year-old Pole, who concluded the match with a winning forehand at the net.
