    Carlos Alcaraz has had a close shave at the French Tennis Open, but more off the court than on

    Carlos Alcaraz has had a close shave at the French Tennis Open, but more off the court than on


    He's flown in his barber Victor Martinez from Spain to serve up a short back and sides, fading to his customary hirsute thatch up top.

    The second seed appeared a touch blunt in the second set against Fabian Marozsan but went on to win the second round match in four - he looked razor-sharp at 6-1, 6-2 to finish.



    Seventh seed Casper Ruud has been defeated in four sets by Nuno Borges .

    Defending champion Iga Swiatek and world number one Aryna Sabalenka have advanced in the women's draw.
