And with that, our liveblog of the French Open Superseries 2017 first round wraps up!

It's been a good day for the top trio of Indian badminton. Srikanth surely wouldn't have liked to progress into the Round of 16 via his opponent's retirement but that's how it was. His opponent, Fabian Roth unfortunately lasted just three points and retired, trailing 0-3.

You can read how Saina's match went HERE and Srikanth's match HERE.

Sindhu is likely to face the 15th ranked Nitchaon Jindapol in the next round.

That tight finish in each game will stand her in good stead when she meets tougher opponents later in the draw.

That was some fightback from Corrales in each game after Sindhu established an early lead. Kudos to her for the massive effort! Sindhu's big match experience ultimately made the difference!
