Federico Cinà is one of the great promises of world tennis, and he has proven it in the first round of Roland Garros 2026, by managing to defeat a player as challenging to face as Reilly Opelka. The young Italian becomes the first tennis player born in 2007 to win a Grand Slam match, after doing so by 3-6 6-4 6-2 6-7 (6) 6-4. He will face Wawrinka or De Jong in the second round.
