Russian second seed Daniil Medvedev finally won a match at the French Open at the fifth attempt on Monday by seeing off Kazakhstan’s Alexander Bublik.

Medvedev triumphed 6-3, 6-3, 7-5 as he looks to take advantage of being in the opposite part of the draw from Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer.
