4 French players to appear on Day 2 in Lyon - Schedule of Play

Although there is one higher-seeded player in the draw, Sofia Kenin, Kristina Mladenovic is definitely the biggest star for the home crowd in Lyon. The second-seeded French player will have a difficult task to follow no. 3 Garcia and no. 4 Cornet into the next round in Lyon.

But the French players will get onto the courts later as the day will be kicked-off by Vera Lapko and Camila Giorgi on the Central court. Ana Bogdan will face Tereza Martincova in the first match on Court 1.

Then, it will be home wild-card Clara Burel who will take on the sixth-seeded at Open 6éme Sens, Jil Teichmann. The action will continue also on Court 1 as Viktoriya Tomova will clash with qualifier Magdalena Frech.

One of the most interesting matches of the day will be featured as third on the Central Court. The second-seeded Kristina Mladenovic will take on another French wild-card Chloe Pacquet. At the same time, the first-seeded team in doubles Minella & Friedsam will meet Paar & Wachaczyk on Court 1.

Two more matches are left in the schedule of play that will excite the crowd in Lyon on the Central Court. The 7th-seeded Daria Kasatkina will take on another home hope, Pauline Parmentier. The day in France will be finished by the match between the eight-seeded Slovak, Viktoria Kuzmova and Lesley Pattinama Kerkhove.
