09:00 CET - Good morning and welcome to what looks set to be a fabulous day at the final Masters event of the year in Paris.
A jam-packed second round is on the cards, and first up on Centre Court at 11:00 CET is Frances Tiafoe against home favourite Quentin Halys. The American is in the hunt for a spot at the ATP Finals in Turin in a few weeks, and will need a good performance here in Paris.
That is followed by Alexander Zverev, who is taking part in his first tournament as world number one. The 2024 champion faces Lorenzo Musetti in what is a really exciting prospect.
Seven-time Novak Djokovic - another man aiming to qualify for the ATP Finals - meets qualifier Rinky Hijikata after the legendary Serb overcame Valentin Vacherot yesterday.
Later, Carlos Alcaraz begins his campaign with a very tricky match against Alex Michelsen, before Arthur Fils takes to the court in front of what is sure to be an adoring home crowd against Tomas Machac.
There are five matches to look forward to on Court 1, with Arthur Rinderknech, Learner Tien, Daniil Medvedev, and Karen Khachanov all gunning to reach the third round, before 2024 finalist Matteo Berrettini goes head-to-head to round out the day.
Court 2 also has several big names, as Tommy Paul, Alex de Minaur and Taylor Fritz are all in action.
