Australia’s Nick Kyrgios was bundled out of the first round of the French Open in straight sets by Milos Raonic on Sunday (AEST), while Roger Federer, Serena Williams and Agnieszka Radwanska eased through to the second round.
Raonic made light work of the 19-year-old Kyrgios, winning the match 6-3, 7-6 (7/1), 6-3 in two hours.
The Canadian won the opening set in 36 minutes before the young Australian put up more of a fight in the second and was unlucky not to level to the match at 1-1.
While the pair were level at 2-2 in the third set, Raonic quickly took control of the game from that point.
Fourth-seeded Federer clinched a record-equalling 59th win as he breezed past world number 87 Lukas Lacko.
The 2009 champion eased to a 6-2, 6-4, 6-2 win to kick off his 16th consecutive Roland Garros campaign with a comfortable victory.
His 59 career wins at the tournament have him level with eight-time champion Rafael Nadal and set up a second-round clash with Diego Sebastian Schwartzman.
