Several beautiful meetings are expected, Wednesday, May 25, at Roland-Garros, for the start of the second. Five Frenchmen are notably on deck. At the start of the day, Elsa Jacquemot will face the German Angelique Kerber (seeded number 21). Gregoire Barrere will be opposed to the giant John Isner and his overpowering service.
Diane Parry, who fell the defending champion in the first round, will be opposed at the end of the day to Colombian Camila Osorio. Also in the last rotation, Richard Gasquet, who is setting foot on the Parisian clay again for the third day in a row, takes on the promising Sebastian Korda.
The French public will be spoiled for choice since in the evening Corentin Moutet will challenge the legend Rafael Nadal. Besides the Spaniard, other favorites will be there, with Novak Djokovic, Carlos Alcaraz and Alexandre Zverev.
