Great Britain's Alfie Hewett and Gordon Reid will face each other in the second round of the French Open wheelchair singles after they began their campaigns with dominant victories.

Second seed Hewett needed just 57 minutes to beat Chile's Alexander Cataldo 6-1 6-0, while Reid beat French wildcard Nicolas Charrier 6-0 7-5.

The pair are long-time doubles partners and are the five-time defending champions in Paris.

But Hewett has won the pair's past six singles Grand Slam matches, including a 6-0 6-4 victory in the quarter-finals of last year's French Open.

Hewett has won the French Open title three times, most recently in 2021, while Reid is a two-time runner-up.

World number two Hewett is currently in fine form and has won the each of the past four Slam titles available to him, including the doubles and singles titles at last year's Wimbledon and this year's Australian Open.
