French Open Night Session set to start earlier after complaints last year but no quotas for lack of women's matches set

Tournament director for the French Open, Amelie Mauresmo confirmed further changes to this year's schedule with the night session set to be moved back after heavy criticism last year.

Last year, players entered the court to warm up at 8:45pm and due to length of Grand Slam matches, there was no public transportation in event of a late finish.

"It will start at 8 p.m. (local time) with an interactive show and the first point will be played at 8:30 p.m.," she told a news conference.

But one thing that won't change at least before the draw is the amount of men's matches that are scheduled with criticism also being levied at the lack of WTA ties.

"It's difficult to project before the draw," she added.

"I don't hold anything back. It's the match-ups that will guide us. It would be a mistake to post quotas."
