Let's go for two weeks of tennis! Roland-Garros begins this Sunday, a few months after the 2020 edition played in autumn and postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. The tournament will still take place under close surveillance, with a strict health protocol and in front of 5,000 spectators. Despite these unusual conditions, tennis will resume its rights, with Rafael Nadal as always the favorite on the men's side. Among women, the Pole Iga Swiatek is putting her title on the line. As for the French, the lack of results and the misforms of the main headliners raise fears of a historic rout.
This 2021 edition will also include a great novelty, with for the first time evening matches, the famous "night sessions".
