Arthur Fils will play the third round of the Antwerp tournament. Opposed to the Estonian Mark Lajal, 229th in the world, he won in two rounds. Both won in the tie-break, 7-4 and 7-2. Ranked 39th in the world, the 19-year-old is seeded number 4 in this tournament.
The match was briefly interrupted when Arthur Fils sent a ball to the wrist of a child following a serve. He apologized and offered her his wristband to make amends, which seemed to delight the young girl. In the next round, he will face Peruvian Juan Pablo Varillas, ranked 69th in the world.
