The second day of the 2014 French Open featured some intriguing matches, and now the winners will advance to the second round at Roland Garros.

The big three are all at this year's French Open, but everyone in the field will be looking to somehow take down Rafael Nadal. It won't be easy, however, as the 27-year-old has won the Grand Slam event eight of the past nine years, and he's looking for his fifth straight title at Roland Garros.

Let's take a look at the complete results from Monday's action, followed by a recap of a couple of the most notable matches from Day 2.

Although Nishikori was able to drag out the first set, it was clear that his recent hip injury was getting to him. The talented 24-year-old couldn't keep up, losing in straight sets while winning just three games in the final two sets.

For as talented as Nishikori is, Erik Gudris from USA Today points out that Nishikori's inability to stay healthy could keep him from reaching his full potential.



“It’s tough for me, but I guess this is my tennis life, you know,” Nishikori told Naila-Jean Meyers from The New York Times. “I have to take care of my body and injury will come again, for sure. So I have to mentally, you know, be ready.”

Nishikori is 27-5 in 2014 already with two titles, but he'll need to get healthy in a hurry if he wants to be ready for Wimbledon next month.
