<div>Roger Federer enlivened a routine day at the office with a violet and pink outfit and a several dabs of brilliance to launch another French Open quest but his mood darkened after a security breach on Sunday. <br /><br />The evergreen Swiss was in full control against Colombia's Alejandro Falla, marking the start of his 62nd consecutive appearance at a Grand Slam tournament with a 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 victory on court Philippe Chatrier. <br /><br />When he walked off, however, a fan sauntered on and began trying to snap a selfie with a mobile phone before he was belatedly removed by a security guard. <br /><br />"I'm not happy about it. Obviously not one second I'm happy about it. It happened yesterday in the practice, too," a ruffled Federer told reporters, adding that organisers had apologised. <br /><br />The 17-times major winner, champion at Roland Garros in 2009, was the star turn on a low-key opening day in a sunny French capital, taking to the court after women's third seed Simona Halep got the ball rolling. <br /><br />Romanian Halep, seeded three after reaching the final last year, was made to work hard by 91st-ranked Russian Evgeniya Rodina, huffing and puffing her way to a 7-5, 6-4 victory. <br /><br />"It was a tough match, because it was the first round and it is always is difficult to start the tournament," she told reporters. <br /><br />"I did make some easy mistakes, but it's normal and I accept that. Next round I will be better, for sure." <br /><br />Federer also made a few errors as he loosened up against a player he almost fell to in the first round at Wimbledon in 2010. But he was never in any danger. <br /><br />Strolling on to court with a perfectly-matched violet shirt, pink shorts and black bandana, 33-year-old Federer quickly warmed to his task, while Falla offered enough resistance to provide some lunchtime entertainment. <br /><br />Federer, one of 39 players in their 30s in the men's draw, breezed through the first two sets and though Falla had a break point in the fifth game of the third, Federer snuffed out the danger to roll through to round two. <br /><br />Federer, conveniently in the opposite side of the draw to nine-times champions Rafa Nadal, world number one Novak Djokovic and third seed Andy Murray, will have a few days off before a clash with Spain's Marcel Granollers. <br /><br />His eight-seeded compatriot Stanislas Wawrinka, one of several players to beat Nadal on clay this season, was a straight-sets winner against Turkey's Marsel Ilhan. <br /><br />Japan's Kei Nishikori, the biggest threat to Federer in the bottom half of the draw, was up against wildcard Paul-Henri Mathieu before ever-popular Frenchman Jo-Wilfried Tsonga rounded off proceedings against Swedish qualifier Christian Lindell. <br /><br />Germany's Philip Kohlschreiber, beaten by Murray in a marathon match here last year, dropped only three games against Japan's Go Soeda, while Spain's Roberto Bautista-Agut beat German Florian Mayer, also in straight sets. <br /><br />Russian veteran Mikhail Youzhny's tournament did not last long. He quit when trailing Bosnia's Damir Dzumhur 6-2 6-1 -- smashing his racket into his forehead several times as his frustration boiled over.<br />First round results <br /><br />Men’s singles: Dusan Lajovic (Srb) bt Maximo Gonzalez (Arg) 6-3, 6-3, 6-1; Ernests Gulbis (Lat) bt Igor Sijsling (Ned) 6-4 6-4, 7-6 (3); Nicolas Mahut (Fra) beat Kimmer Coppejans (Bel) 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (4), Kei Nishikori (Jap) bt Paul-Henri Mathieu (Fra) 6-3, 7-5, 6-1; Pablo Andujar (Esp) bt Albert Ramos (Esp) 6-2,6-4,7-6 (3), Marcel Granollers (Esp) bt Matthias Bachinger (Ger) 6-4, 6-3, 7-6 (7); Marcos Baghdatis (Cyp) bt Ivo Karlovic (Cro) 7-6 (5), 6-4, 6-4; Roger Federer (Sui) bt Alejandro Falla (Col) 6-3, 6-3, 6-4; Stanislas Wawrinka (Sui) bt Marsel Ilhan (Tur) 6-3, 6-2, 6-3; Lukas Rosol (Cze) bt Elias Ymer (Swe) 6-2, 7-6 (7), 6-3; Roberto Bautista (Esp) bt Florian Mayer (Ger) 6-3, 6-1, 6-3; Philipp Kohlschreiber (Ger) bt Go Soeda (Jap) 6-1, 6-0, 6-2; Damir Dzumhur (B&H) bt Mikhail Youzhny (Rus) 6-2 6-1 (Youzhny retired), <br /><br />Women’s singles: Magdalena Rybarikova (Slo) bt Olivia Rogowska (Aus) 0-6, 7-5, 6-2; Flavia Pennetta (Ita) bt Magda Linette (Pol) 6-3, 5-7, 6-1; Donna Vekic (Cro) bt Caroline Garcia (Fra) 3-6, 6-3, 6-2; Misaki Doi (Jap) bt Petra Cetkovska (Cze) 6-3 6-2; Bojana Jovanovski (Ser) bt Lesia Tsurenko (Ukr) 1-6, 6-1, 6-0; Garbine Muguruza Blanco (Esp) bt Petra Martic (Cro) 6-2, 7-5; Camila Giorgi (Ita) bt Tatjana Maria (Ger) 7-5, 6-3; Mirjana Lucic-Baroni (Cro) bt Lauren Davis (US) 6-3, 3-6, 6-3; Ekaterina Makarova (Rus) bt Louisa Chirico (US) 6-4, 6-2; Simona Halep (Rom) bt Evgeniya Rodina (Rus) 7-5, 6-4; Teliana Pereira (Bra) bt Fiona Ferro (Fra) 6-3, 6-2.<br /></div>
