John McEnroe thinks Rafael Nadal’s absence from the French Open is an «opening» for Novak Djokovic as the «end» of the 'Big Three' era approaches. Djokovic and Nadal are both on 22 Grand Slam titles, level at the top of the all-time standings. Ad Nadal will not have a chance to win No.
Eurosport expert Barbara Schett has recalled the «incredible» rivalry between Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic while looking ahead to what Carlos Alcaraz can continue to achieve ahead of the French Open. With Federer having retired at a highly emotional Laver Cup edition in London and Nadal having withdrawn ahead of Roland-Garros due to persistent injuries, Djokovic is the only member of the legendary 'Big Three' to be present at the second Grand Slam of the season. Ad While many are keen to immediately throw their focus forward to the next generation of rising stars coming through in men's tennis, Schett paused in her French Open preview conversation with Eurosport to pay tribute to what the iconic trio have achieved.
The 2023 French Open gets underway at Roland Garros in Paris on Sunday without defending champion Rafael Nadal and with two-time winner Novak Djokovic struggling with form and fitness.
Novak Djokovic’s «champion» mentality and experience can drive him to contend for a third French Open title, reckons Alex Corretja. Djokovic has won Roland-Garros twice and is one of the leading contenders to lift the trophy following the withdrawal of 14-time champion Rafael Nadal. Ad Djokovic has not had the best clay preparation, losing early in Monte Carlo and Bosnia-Herzegovina before withdrawing from Madrid and then making the quarter-finals in Rome.
The French Open airs live on NBC Sports, Peacock and Tennis Channel through championship points at Roland Garros in Paris.
Carlos Alcaraz replaced Novak Djokovic at No. 1 in the ATP rankings on Monday, earning the top seeding at the French Open, and Daniil Medvedev's Italian Open title moved him up to No. 2 ahead of the year's second Grand Slam tournament.
Alex Corretja has described Daniil Medvedev as a “genius” and Holger Rune as a «machine» — and thinks both will be tough to beat at the French Open. Medvedev won the first clay title of his career in impressive fashion as he beat Rune in the Italian Open final at the weekend. Ad The result means that Medvedev, who once said he hated clay, will be the second seed for the French Open behind world No.
Eurosport's Tim Henman would put Carlos Alcaraz «fractionally ahead» of Novak Djokovic in terms of the favourites to triumph at the 2023 French Open when all the action kicks off at Roland-Garros from May 28. The huge news prior to the tournament getting underway was reigning champion and 'King of Clay' Rafael Nadal withdrawing due to his ongoing injury frustrations. As such, the men's draw will be fascinating with Daniil Medvedev having jumped Djokovic in being the second seed.
