Veteran French player, Paul-Henri Mathieu gets into the second round of Roland Garros this year for the seventh time and he has reached as far as the fourth round twice, in 2002 and 2008. He defeated Bjorn Phau, in his first round assignment, the German currently ranked #85. Mathieu is currently ranked #261 right now. His second round match today against John Isner, ranked #11 in the world, was a freakin' marathon! They reached 18 16 in the fifth set!! And Mathieu reaches the third round! Tres cool! His opponent will be known tomorrow.
