The nine-time champion's 6-1, 6-1, 6-1 victory against Sam Groth of Australia added another notch to the Spanish player's stunning record in Paris, now at 71 wins, with just two losses. Bacsinszky defeated Bouchard 6-2 5-7 6-2 in the third round at Indian Wells earlier this year in their only previous meeting. Bidding to complete a career Grand Slam in Paris after losing in the final three times over the past four years, Djokovic defeated 95th-ranked Yen-hsun Lu of Taiwan 6-4, 6-1, 6-1. Bouchard cruised into the second round Tuesday, beating Germany's Laura Siegemund 6-2, 6-2. Speaking after a first-round victory Tuesday at the French Open, Bouchard said she felt as though food "would come right back up" and struggled with weight loss in 2015, when her ranking slipped.
