Sixth-seeded Jo-Wilfried Tsonga rallies from two sets down against Marcos Baghdatis to reach the third round of the French Open for the eighth consecutive year.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga has come from two sets down to overcome Marcos Baghdatis and reach the third round of the French Open for the eighth consecutive year.

In a matchup between two former Australian Open runner-ups, Tsonga prevailed 6-7 (6) 3-6 6-3 6-2 6-2 to complete a 100th Grand Slam match win.

Only two other Frenchmen have achieved the feat - Jean Borotra, with 103, and Henri Cochet, with 102, well before the Open era started.

It took the sixth seed three hours and 26 minutes to get the better of his Cypriot opponent over five sets, and it was third time that he had recovered from a two-set deficit, while Baghdatis had never lost a match when up two sets to love.
