Result
No. 25 seed Arthur Rinderknech beat Martin Damm 6-4 7-6(1) 6-3 on Court 15 in 2h 02m to reach the third round. The big-serving Frenchman fired 19 aces to Damm's 10 and won 83% of his first-serve points, keeping his unforced errors to just 12 against the American's 30. Rinderknech took the second set in a lopsided tiebreak and never faced a break point he could not answer, finishing ahead 106 points to 84. The result avenged a clay-court loss to Damm at a Bordeaux Challenger earlier in 2026.
