The schedule has been confirmed ahead of Day Five (Tuesday 30 July) at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games which will see the Quarter-Finals mainly take place. Our preview looks ahead to the leading ties to watch at Roland Garros.
Novak Djokovic, a double dose of Carlos Alcaraz, Angelique Kerber's renaissance and Iga Swiatek v Danielle Collins are among the leading storylines of the day as we get closer to the medals being distributed.
It is an interesting change to start the day on Court Philippe-Chatrier. A tournament that has innovated by for once putting women in the Night Session unlike the French Open, it is a facet that the Olympic Games some may say have got right.
Novak Djokovic will kick off proceedings on Wednesday as he faces off against Dominik Koepfer. After the fanfare of Rafael Nadal, it is back to a tie with less spotlight and one that Djokovic will be expected to win with some degree of ease.
The top seed is followed by Qinwen Zheng who dramatically came back to stave off the threat of Emma Navarro who certainly didn't hold back in her assessment of the Chinese ace post match. But she now has Angelique Kerber in her sights. Somewhat the story of the tournament, it has been retiring players in Andy Murray and Kerber that have taken the spotlight.
Kerber admitted after defeating Leylah Fernandez that retirement was the right decision and if she is able to go out with at least a semi-final, that is certainly a result to behold. Then it is the turn of Nadalcaraz. Another leading story line, the duo team up once more. They face American standouts in Austin Krajicek and Rajeev Ram. They will have no issue spoiling the party. 4th seeds and an established pairing, it is one that they will aim to stamp their authority on. Can the Spaniards survive one more time.
Then it is the turn of Marta Kostyuk. It is a battle of the giantkillers as such with Maria Sakkari and Coco Gauff falling to the Ukrainian and her next opponent Donna Vekic. A big chance awaits the winner.
Then out on Court Suzanne-Lenglen, it is players that usually have been on Chatrier. Carlos Alcaraz will play two matches again. He takes on Roman Safiullin. While Iga Swiatek takes on Danielle Collins as the latter withholds American honour. Alexander Zverev takes on Alexei Popyrin also. While to start off, Tommy Paul will take on Corentin Moutet. The home hero rises again.
Elsewhere, we get Stefanos Tsitsipas v Sebastian Baez, Barbora Krejcikova will aim to seal a second title at this stadium and add to her Wimbledon crown. She faces one of the surprise packages of this week in Anna Karolina Schmiedlova. She has looked exhausted especially in Tuesday's 30 degrees plus. But she found a way against Jasmine Paolini. Sterling from the Slovakian.
Casper Ruud also stars as does another round of Lorenzo Musetti v Taylor Fritz. A real tasty affair that one. While mixed doubles sees Gauff and Fritz in action as well as in their respective doubles, we get Gauff and Pegula v Muchova and Noskova. Leylah Fernandez and Gabriela Dabrowski also face Mirra Andreeva and Diana Shnaider. While Heather Watson anchors Brit hopes twice with Katie Boulter and Joe Salisbury. That is Day Five.
