Last year's runner-up Jo-Wilfried Tsonga overcame a patchy first set to thrash Argentine Juan Monaco 6-4, 6-4, 6-0 and advance to the second round of the Australian Open on Tuesday.
Tsonga was broken once in the first set by the world number 49, though Monaco was broken twice himself and saved one other opportunity before the Frenchman won the set in 40 minutes.
The second set followed a similar pattern before world number seven Tsonga ran away with the third set.
Tsonga converted all three of his break opportunities in the final set and sealed the match when he served to love to set up a second round clash with either Croatia's Ivan Ljubicic or Russia's Igor Kunitsyn.
