This Tuesday, the first day of the quarter-finals begins at Roland-Garros. Among the men, it is Novak Djokovic who will start the hostilities against the Russian Karen Khachanov, eleventh player in the world. On the women’s side, the good poster will be played between the Ukrainian Elina Svitolina (192nd), who is coming back strong, and the Belarusian Aryna Sabalenka, second player in the world.
Who to go to the last four? This Tuesday, the level is likely to rise a notch on the courts of Roland-Garros. For this first day of the quarter-finals, the Parisian public is likely to witness big fights. If Novak Djokovic will enter the dance first in the men’s race by facing the Russian Karen Khachanov, the eyes will necessarily be turned towards the Philippe Chatrier who will be the arena of the big poster between the world number 1 Carlos Alcaraz and the Greek Stéfanos Tsitsipàs ( 5th). An opposition that could last into the night.

Among women, will the beautiful story continue for Elina Svitolina? The Ukrainian, 192nd in the world and who gave birth to a baby girl last October, is making a resounding return to Parisian clay. Facing her, Belarusian Aryna Sabalenka, world number 2, intends to end the great adventure. One thing is certain, Elina Svitolina, the partner of Gaël Monfils, will not shake hands with her opponent at the end of the match, as she has done since the start of the competition with Russian and Belarusian athletes.
