    Thwack! Jack Draper's overhead smash echoes around the court as he moves to 40-15.

    He misses the baseline with a forehand in the next rally but then manages to nab a hold with a passing winner at the net.

    He is super quick is Draper. He's punished every one of Fonseca's slightly off drop shots so far.

    It is remarkable to think that Joao Fonseca is so young but making his name already.

    He has the potential to change the trajectory of the sport.

    British tennis fans are looking at Jack Draper who can fly the flag proud for years so we could see these guys playing each other 25 times over the course of 10-12 Grand Slam encounters.

    Draper's got a decent drop shot on him, so it's no surprise when he slices a winner from the baseline to have Fonseca huffing and puffing.

    But the Brazilian responds with four points in a row to hold.

    Give Joao Fonseca some credit, he stays in points.

    But Jack Draper is dialled in today and eventually wins a couples of rallies with some powerful hitting.

    Even for neutrals this match so far has been very watchable. Long, attacking rallies from both, but Draper has the edge.

    Jack Draper wants to take that teenage excitement away from Joao Fonseca.

    It's important to establish your game style early on.

    It's cloudy and sticky in Paris today - with the threat of thunderstorms hanging in the air.

    That will make the conditions heavy and means Draper might have to hit through the ball even harder to make it travel.

    After beating Monfils, he said the conditions felt like he was "hitting oranges" - the balls hit by youngsters learning the game because they bounce slower and lower.

    It could be the same again today.

    Jack Draper only needs one opportunity to snatch the early break, moving Joao Fonseca around the court before the Brazilian bails with a long forehand.

    Great start for the British number one.

    Top tennis as Fonseca wellies a huge forehand cross-court, but Draper responds with an even bigger effort down the line which the Brazilian can't return.

    15-30, another small opening, although the teenager soon gets his first serves in to make it to 40-30.

    He comes to the net next point but exposes himself and Draper sends over a lovely passing winner. Deuce.

    I imagine Joao Fonseca will have to dig deep if he is to beat Jack Draper.

    Over the past year, Draper has developed into a leading player with genuine ambitions of landing the biggest prizes in the sport.

    After two chastening previous experiences on the Paris clay, Draper has returned with a point to prove.

    The manner in which the 23-year-old Englishman has reached the French Open third round has been another example of his growing maturity.

    Patience has been required in his victories over Italy's Mattia Bellucci and French veteran Gael Monfils.

    You would imagine that will be the same again. Draper should be able to exploit the vulnerability of Fonseca, who can still show a teenage tempestuous streak.

    What were you doing at 18? I try not to remember what I was like as a teenager but I'm certain I never played a match in the third round of the French Open.

    Draper's movement is terrific in this next game as he sprints forward to whack a winner at the net.

    Hold to 15.

    Sometimes it is easy to forget how young professional athletes are - especially when you're seeing them whack ferocious forehand winners like Joao Fonseca.

    Recently, I was reminded of Joao Fonseca's age - 18 - when we met at the Madrid Open for an interview.

    Shy and softly-spoken, his demeanour was still very child-like. The baby face was another sign.

    When he walked into the room for our interview, he was chaperoned by an older woman who initially cast a suspicious eye towards me. Turned out afterwards it was his mother Roberta.

    Roberta and her husband Christiano are guiding their son's career as they aim to shelter him somewhat from the glare of the ever-increasing hype.

    Fonseca 1-0 Draper*

    Already a chance for Draper as Fonseca goes long with a forehand to bring up 30-30.

    But on the next point the Briton is never really in it as Fonseca serves out wide and then hits a winner to the opposite corner.

    Same again on the next point helps the young Brazilian to a hold.

    Warm ups are done. The players fiddle with their towels for a bit and then we're ready to get under way.

    They have met once before and Jack Draper took Joao Fonseca quite comfortably on the hard court but Fonseca is explosive, he has got a huge fan base, there is something really special about him and the way that he hits a ball.

    We will be hearing about him for many years to come. People are just following him to take a look at him but I think Draper is able to cope with anything at the moment. He was so impressive against [Gael] Monfils.

    Having said that, so was Fonseca when he won Buenos Aires. He took on three Argentine players in a very raucous crowd and he coped with all of it and won all three matches and beat one to take the title so that says a lot about his ability to cope with pressure and have a very strong mindset.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Draper and Fonseca are competing for some of the biggest titles in the future.

    The hype is continuing to build around the youngster labelled Brazil's newest sporting superstar.

    Football icons Ronaldo and Neymar have sent congratulatory messages while primetime Brazilian chat shows are desperate to have Fonseca on the sofa - an offer so far resisted by his representatives.

    A carnival atmosphere led by thousands of Brazilians has followed Fonseca this year from Melbourne to Miami - and in his hometown of Rio de Janeiro.

    Read why Fonseca has created such a stir.

    Draper and Fonesca are warming up. Fonesca's wearing that colourful pastel top that he wore during his last victory.

    Draper's got on red and even darker red stripes. On the TV pictures he's blending in with the red clay surface. Camouflage?
