Jo-Wilfried Tsonga defeats Edouard Roger-Vasselin in straight sets to progress through to the third round at Queen's.

Jo-Wilfried Tsonga has progressed to the last 16 at Queen's with a three-set win over Edouard Roger-Vasselin.

The number four seed was tested by his fellow Frenchman before finally prevailing through to the third round with a 6-3 6-7 6-3 victory.

The French Open semi-finalist secured an early break in the first set to open up an early advantage over the world number 66, and that was enough to earn a set lead.

The second set was dominated by serve, before Roger-Vasselin struck in the tie-break to level the match.

However, the world number seven began to show his class in the decider, breaking serve at the beginning of the set before serving out the match.
