Naomi Osaka and Carlos Alcaraz bring the curtain up on the French Open on Sunday as Roland Garros prepares to bid a likely farewell to Rafael Nadal. Osaka, a four-time major winner who has yet to get past the third round in Paris, is first up on the showpiece Court Philippe Chatrier against Italy's Lucia Bronzetti. Alcaraz, the reigning Wimbledon champion, then begins his campaign against J.J. Wolf of the United States, a lucky loser from qualifying. Andy Murray and his fellow three-time Grand Slam champion Stan Wawrinka will close proceedings in the night session.
Rafael Nadal said Saturday that he is likely appearing at the French Open for the final time but cautioned it was "not 100%" certain, describing the tournament where he has been champion 14 times as a "magical place". "It's a big, big chance that this is going to be my last Roland Garros, but if I have to tell you it's 100% my last Roland Garros, sorry, but I will not, because I cannot predict what's going on. I hope you understand," said the Spaniard.

Rafael Nadal smiled. He joked. He sounded upbeat. He's been playing well and feeling better in practice. He is eager to get going at Roland Garros after dealing for so long with hip and abdominal problems.
PARIS — This might not turn out to be Rafael Nadal's last French Open after all. The 14-time champion at Roland Garros said Saturday that he is not 100 percent sure he won't play again at the Grand Slam tournament.
Carlos Alcaraz admitted Friday that he was "a little bit scared" over how his sledgehammer forehand will bear up at the French Open after overcoming a worrying arm injury. The charismatic world number three was forced to sit out the recent Rome Open to nurse a problem with his right forearm. "I'm not feeling any pain in the practices when I step on the court. But I'm still thinking about it when I'm hitting forehands," said the 21-year-old Wimbledon champion.
