Men's singles world number one Novak Djokovic began his French Open journey this year with a straight-set win over Japan's Yoshihito Nishioka.

Djokovic is playing his maiden Grand Slam this year after having been deported from Australia earlier this year. Here are the details.

Djokovic reflects on his match

"Have to be pleased with the start [to the tournament]," Djokovic said after his win. "Beginning of the match, until I really got used to and adapted to his game, it was difficult to go through him. He's very quick, one of the quickest players on the tour." Djokovic also said he managed to find the right serves and that helped him.

Since losing in the semis of the Madrid Open, Djokovic won the Italian Open, not dropping a single set. He is now on a six-match unbeaten run, winning 13 sets in a row. As per Roland Garros, Djokovic has not lost a set in the opening round in Paris since 2010. He has never dropped more than three games in a set against Nishioka.
