PARIS — A quick look at the French Open: TODAY Top-ranked Rafael Nadal is back on court as he resumes his bid for a record-extending 11th title at the French Open against Guido Pella in the second round. After a straight-sets win in her first Grand Slam match following maternity leave, Serena Williams faces a tougher test on center court against 17th-seeded Ash Barty of Australia in another second-round match.
