The young Frenchman has fought his way back from serious injury into the world’s top 20 and raised expectations for his home slam at Roland Garros
Towards the end of a miserable summer last year, Arthur Fils received a message from a friend imploring him to listen to a song.

There was a depressing irony to the lyric. The popular French rapper La Rvfleuze repeatedly referenced Fils in the chorus of Serrure #5, likening the noise Fils generates through his performances on the court to the rapper’s impact in his own arena: “Arthur Fils, j’fais du grah sur le court,” he rapped. In reality, Fils’s career was worryingly soundtracked by complete silence.
