We have quite a tasty day ahead of us (weather permitting), scheduled to feature Serena, Rafa, Thiem, Halep, and the first Mexican woman to win a match at a Grand Slam for two decades (“I think I’m living a dream here,” said Renata Zarazua after her win; she plays Elina Svitolina first on Chatrier at which point the dream might start to fade a bit).
Here’s today’s order of play. There has been some persistent drizzle in Paris this morning, so the roof is on Chatrier and there will be delayed start on the outside courts, but the forecast is for a dry daytime (before rain overnight, and for much of the next few days). I haven’t held back, it’s all here. There are no boy’s or girl’s events, so they’re all men’s or women’s singles or doubles, though I’ll leave you to work out which is which. Just stop reading if you’ve read enough doubles schedules.
