Arthur Fils, the 14th seed, is set to face Jaume Munar in the second round of the 2025 Roland Garros. In the opening round, Munar eased past Camilo Ugo Carabelli, while Fils had to battle through a tight four-setter that included a third-set tiebreak.

Heading into their Parisian clash, Fils has shown stronger form this season, though both players have had their share of highs interrupted by inconsistency, and neither has captured a title yet. Munar most recently exited in the round of 32 in Geneva, while Fils fell to Alexander Zverev in the round of 16 in Rome. With both players searching for rhythm and a deeper run, this matchup could be a turning point
