The world number six bounced back from 0-2 down against Matteo Berrettini to win the encounter in sudden death.
That means he has a record at the Mouratoglou Academy of six wins to just one defeat - which came against Dominic Thiem.
David Goffin put in a solid display to beat the mercurial Corentin Moutet 3-1 - and was not distracted by his compatriot's spell of racket-smashing.
In the afternoon session, Dustin Brown won his first match of the tournament with an impressive display against Feliciano Lopez, taking the encounter 3-1.
And the veteran Richard Gasquet looked exceedingly comfortable against Alexei Popyrin, easing up only in the final quarter to win 4-1.
