French tennis player Arthur Rinderknech reached the round of 16 at the Libema Open on Thursday.
The world No. 24, who received a first round bye, faced fellow Frenchman Adrian Mannarino in the second round on the grass courts. Mannarino, the 2019 champion at this event, tested Rinderknech in an early round matchup on the fast surface.
Rinderknech, known for his powerful serve and aggressive baseline game, has shown strong form on grass this week. The 30 year old from France has reached a career high ranking of No. 24 in May 2026 and continues to compete at a high level in ATP events.
The Libema Open serves as an important stop on the grass-court swing ahead of Wimbledon. Rinderknech looks to build momentum on the surface that often favors big servers like him.
