For the Italian colours, today’s matches at Roland Garros are focused above all on the highly anticipated evening match (around 8.15pm), which will see Lorenzo Musetti against Novak Djokovic. A match that also interests Jannik Sinner, who yesterday easily overtook the Russian Kotov. In fact, if Musetti were to win, he would hand over the scepter of world no. 1 to the South Tyrolean, currently held by Djokovic. In the women’s field, around 2.30pm, it’s Jasmine Paolini’s turn, expected to face the Canadian Bianca Andreescu. Also on the pitch, among others, Zverev, Medvedev, Ruud, Rune and, in the women’s field, Rybakina and Sabalenka
