French Open tournament director Amelie Mauresmo says the organisers hope Rafael Nadal will be able to compete at Roland-Garros this year. Nadal lost to Denis Shapovalov in three sets at the Madrid Open last week and the 21-time Grand Slam winner admitted afterwards he is suffering with a foot injury that he has to live with. Ad/> It was Nadal’s earliest exit in Rome since 2008, and it raised questions about his fitness ahead of the French Open, which starts on May 22.
Novak Djokovic will be aiming for a record-equalling 21st Grand Slam title when the French Open starts on May 22. Djokovic is defending men’s champion and will be hoping to overcome the challenges from Rafael Nadal, Carlos Alcaraz, Alexander Zverev and Stefanos Tsitsipas to win in Paris.

Novak Djokovic had extra joy following his sixth Italian Open title on Sunday after finding out that his son had won his first ever tournament on the same day. Beaming with pride, the world number one revealed that his seven-year-old boy Stefan had claimed the honours at a small club competition back home in Serbia just as Djokovic senior saw off Stefano Tsitsipas in straight sets in Rome. Djokovic had told the crowd at the Foro Italico that he was awaiting news of his son's performance after beating Greek Tsitsipas 6-0, 7-6 (7/6). "My son actually won the tournament. It's a sunshine double today," Djokovic told reporters. "We had a chat the last few days about the routines and the things he should do before a match and leading him into this world... The first official tournament or match always stays very fondly in your memory. "We just spoke and he was on cloud nine with all the family. It was nice. He's doing really well so far, he's in love with the sport. He was up late last night and he was showing me forehands and backhands and how he was going to move, playing shadow tennis. I used to do that as a kid."
Novak Djokovic sealed his sixth Italian Open title with a 6-0 7-5 victory over Stefanos Tsitsipas on Sunday and insisted he could not have asked for a better lead up to Roland Garros.
