That's exactly what Denis Shapovalov - and the crowd - needed.

Alcaraz can still have these minor dips where a few points go either way. All it takes is one break of serve.

Now then. Carlos Alcaraz drifts a cross-court backhand wide and is facing 0-30.

It's as good a chance as Denis Shapovalov has had so far. Can he take it?

A devastating one-handed backhand sets up three break points!

Shapovalov has never played Alcaraz before.

Shapovalov has always been the young gun, the exciting young player, the explosive player. Suddenly he has run into someone who is that times-10.

It's looking like a good start for Denis Shapovalov, the Canadian hitting couple of winners, suggesting he's finding his range.

But, from 40-15, he's pegged back to deuce.

Shapovalov swings at a forehand, firing wide to hand over a break point, but he finds his target with his next to stay in contention.

A volley on the stretch puts him within reach of safety, and he just about gets the better of Alcararz at the net to get over the line.

Rafael Nadal might not physically be here in Paris, but spiritually he will always be around.

The swashbuckling Spaniard has captured hearts all over the world, particularly in this part of the French capital.

A short walk down the road from the place where he has won a record 14 titles is a parked car which has the unmistakeable image of Nadal printed on the boot.

Similar adhesive stickers are also plastered on the back doors, while the dashboard has more Nadal-themed memorablia.

You can count at least eight photos depicting his some of his previous wins, plus a poster of the former world number one in that familiar pose of celebratory clenched fist and tensed bicep.

"Tennis is all about dedication, motivation and the will to win," is the Nadal quote alongside it.

Driving around Boulogne-Billancourt - the busy part of Paris which is home to Roland Garros - might also require dedication and motivation.

Hopefully not the will to win.

Late signs of improvement from Denis Shapovalov, but he's going to have to offer a lot more than that if he is to cause an upset here.

Carlos Alcaraz is well on his way.

A return drops into the net and Alcaraz has two more set points.

Nicely worked by Shapovalov, forcing Alcaraz out wide before rushing in to meet a volley.

A rare mis-hit from Alcaraz wastes the second set point, and the Spaniard has just lost his focus a little bit here as another miss hands Shapovalov the chance to get on the board.

He takes it, to the delight of the crowd. A huge relief for him too, ensuring he at least avoids a first-set bagel.

The crowd want a contest here and they're trying to inspire Shapovalov into action.

He denies Alcaraz on game point, but the Spaniard takes his next opportunity as a powerful forehand draws a miss from his opponent.

Better from Shapovalov, but not enough.

Breathtakingly clinical from Alcaraz.

It’s quite terrifying I would have thought if you are a player who has just started out on tour and thinking you’ve got to get past this man for the next 15 years.
