Who will find Novak Djokovic in the final? A year after his injury in the semi-finals against Rafael Nadal, Alexander Zverev, back in the last four for the third consecutive year, will face Casper Ruud, the unfortunate finalist of last year. Since his lost final at the US Open 2020 against Dominic Thiem, the German has lost his last three Grand Slam semi-finals. At Roland-Garros, the 27th in the world found his game to get rid of the surprise of this tournament, Tomas Martin Etcheverry, in the quarter-finals.

Opposite, Casper Ruud, fourth in the world, will try to reach the final for the second consecutive year after his defeat last year against the host, Rafael Nadal. In the previous round, the Norwegian had mastered the passion of the young Dane Holger Rune.
