View Schedule: Federer, Tsitsipas Feature On Opening Sunday At Roland Garros
Roger Federer will make his return to Roland Garros for the first time in four years on opening Sunday at the clay-court Grand Slam, playing the third match on Court Philippe-Chatrier against Italy’s Lorenzo Sonego. Stefanos Tsitsipas, a recent finalist at the Mutua Madrid Open, will kick off men’s action on the court against Germany’s Maximilian Marterer.
Marin Cilic and Kei Nishikori play back-to-back matches from 11:00am on Court Suzanne Lenglen, respectively facing Italian Thomas Fabbiano and French wild card Quentin Halys. Meanwhile, a pair of former Top 10 players, Janko Tipsarevic and Grigor Dimitrov, go head-to-head for a second straight major on Court 1. Tipsarevic leads their FedEx ATP Head2Head 4-2, though Dimitrov won their first-round clash in January at the Australian Open.
