PARIS -- Carlos Alcaraz made a confident start at the French Open on Sunday, overwhelming J.J. Wolf 6-1, 6-2, 6-1.
It was the Spaniard's first win since coming back from the right forearm injury that sidelined him for almost a month.
"I'm almost at 100% of my abilities," Alcaraz said after his first-round win. "After the match, I didn't feel anything."
Elsewhere in the men's draw, No. 6 Andrey Rublev defeated Taro Daniel 6-2, 6-7 (3), 6-3, 7-5. Rublev showed frustration during his match, throwing his racket at one stage.
Lorenzo Sonego stunned No. 17 Ugo Humbert 6-4, 2-6, 6-4, 6-3. Humbert was the highest-ranked Frenchman in the tournament.
Hubert Hurkacz beat Shintaro Mochizuki 4-6, 6-3, 3-6, 6-0, 6-3, and Grigor Dimitrov routed Aleksandar Kovacevic in three sets. Brandon Nakashima also won.
Play was interrupted for a little more than an hour on all 18 clay courts because of rain, except for the two largest, equipped with retractable roofs. Court Philippe Chatrier has had a roof since 2020, while the roof on Court Suzanne Lenglen was inaugurated Sunday.
