World number one Novak Djokovic said he does not consider himself a favourite ahead of his title defence at the French Open, which begins with a first-round match against local hope Pierre-Hugues Herbert on Sunday.
Iga Swiatek said she is "confident" ahead of her bid to become only the fourth woman to win four Roland Garros singles titles in the Open era. The world number one could also become the first player to lift three successive women's titles in Paris since Justine Henin in 2007 when the French Open gets underway on Sunday. Swiatek is a strong favourite after dominating on clay again this season, arriving in Paris off the back of WTA 1000 victories in Madrid and Rome.
PARIS : Italian Jannik Sinner says his hip injury has recovered in time for the French Open but his preparation has not been ideal.
PARIS : Germany's Alexander Zverev thought his brother was joking when he informed him he was playing 14-time champion Rafa Nadal in the opening round of the French Open.
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.
PARIS — Alexander Zverev thought his brother was joking when he was told he would be facing 14-time champion Rafael Nadal in the opening round of the French Open.
GENEVA — Novak Djokovic will defend his French Open title in Paris still without a trophy this season after losing in the Geneva Open semifinals Friday.
World number one Iga Swiatek said she'll be "rooting" for Rafael Nadal at the French Open but insisted it was fair the 14-time champion had not been seeded. Nadal, ranked a lowly 276 in the world after injury restricted him to just four tournaments since January last year, will face world number four Alexander Zverev in the first round of his farewell appearance. With an astonishing record of just three losses in 115 matches at Roland Garros since his 2005 debut, there were suggestions that officials should have the discretion to seed former champions.
