Britain's Aljaz Bedene reaches the third round of the French Open for the first time after overcoming Spain's Pablo Carreno Busta.

Britain's Aljaz Bedene has reached the third round of the French Open for the first time after overcoming Spain's Pablo Carreno Busta 7-6 6-3 4-6 5-7 6-2.

The Slovenia-born player, who beat Gerald Melzer in round two, won the first two sets to rack up a strong advantage - taking the first on a tie-break before winning the second 6-3.

Carreno Busta claimed the third 6-4, however, before levelling the contest at two-sets-all after breaking Bedene on three separate occasions in the fourth.

Bedene held his nerve in the fifth and final set, however, securing two breaks to claim a 6-2 victory and 3-2 success overall to join Andy Murray in the third round.

The 26-year-old could now meet world number one Novak Djokovic in the next round.
