Result
Zizou Bergs kept his surprise run rolling, beating Portuguese qualifier Jaime Faria 7-6(6) 4-6 6-2 6-3 to reach the third round. The Belgian — who knocked out No. 27 seed Ugo Humbert in five sets in round one — leaned on a dominant first-serve day: 16 aces and 81% of first-serve points won. Faria, who came through qualifying and then a four-set first-round win over Sho Shimabukuro, hung on through two tight sets before Bergs' pressure told in the third and fourth.
