Paris, France, 25 September 2020 | Leigh Rogers

Aleksandar Vukic will make his Grand Slam debut at Roland Garros after earning his place through qualifying.

The 24-year-old from Sydney secured a main draw berth with a 6-3 3-6 6-3 victory over Chinese Taipai’s Jason Jung in the final qualifying round.

The world No.192-ranked Vukic, who saved two match points in an opening round victory earlier this week, hit 40 winners in the one hour, 58 minute battle against Jung.

Vukic becomes the sixth Australian in the men’s singles draw, joining direct entrants Alex de Minaur, John Millman, Jordan Thompson, James Duckworth and Alexei Popyrin.
