PARIS: Former champion Stan Wawrinka was knocked out of the French Open first round on Monday, losing to Spain's Guillermo Garcia-Lopez 6-2, 3-6, 4-6, 7-6 (7/5), 6-3.
Wawrinka, runner-up to Rafael Nadal in 2017, has been plagued by a knee injury and arrived in Paris having won just one match on clay in Geneva last week, the 33-year-old's first event in three months.
Garcia-Lopez, the 34-year-old world number 67, will face Russia's Karen Khachanov for a place in the last 32.
