Novak Djokovic survives first big test in French Open

The defending champion had reached round three without dropping a set despite not playing his best, but he was given a fright by Argentinian Schwartzman before coming through 5-7 7-5 3-6 6-1 6-1.

Agassi said yesterday he is ready to continue his coaching arrangement with Djokovic at Wimbledon and he revealed he is not being paid by the world number two. Djokovic turned to Agassi after splitting from his long-time coaching team in April. The French Open is their first tournament together, but Agassi must head home to Las Vegas this weekend to fulfil prior arrangements.
