French day.

With four French representatives this Saturday for the rest and end of the third round, the country will vibrate at Roland-Garros.

We will also closely follow the favorites Medvedev and Tsitsipas who hope to find a place in the round of 16.

The badly programmed poster of the day

We will first curse the organizers who programmed this great match for us in night session at the same time as the Champions League final between Real and Liverpool at the Stade de France.

Because the poster between Hugo Gaston and the Dane Holger Rune does not deserve to take a back seat.

On the central, the Frenchman, who put himself in the same pocket the public of Lenglen during the first two rounds, will try to prove that he can also shine on another court.

The key for the Toulousain, a place in the round of 16 as in 2020. Except that the Dane Holger Rune is not a partridge of the year.

At 19, the 40th player in the world is already being talked about on and off the court.

Today's favorites

As a good self-respecting Greek, Stefanos Tsitsipas loves marathons.

After playing 5 sets in the first round and finishing the second round saving four set points in the fourth set, the No. 4 seed likes to scare herself.

We will therefore carefully follow his match against Sweden's Ymer.

In form since the start of the tournament, Daniil Medvedev will have a good test against the Serbian Kecmanovic, seeded n°28.

Among women, Swiatek's ride, which is aiming for a 31st success in a row, will open the day on the central.

The French of the day

It's been a while since we had four Frenchmen on the same day in the third round of Roland-Garros.

But for the party to be beautiful, we would like the adventure to continue for the four.

It is first of all the phenomenon Léolia Jeanjean, who has come back from nowhere at the highest level, which will start at 11 a.m. on the Suzanne Lenglen court.

Facing the Romanian Begu, the French can dream of an incredible round of 16.

The other three French were programmed on the Central.

At the start of the afternoon, Alizé Cornet will also have a good chance to play against the Chinese Zheng.

Then will come the turn of the incredible Gilles Simon who came to say goodbye to Roland-Garros but who has already passed two rounds to everyone's surprise.

Facing Marin Cilic, the veteran won't start as a favorite but hey, as Gilou has defied the predictions since the start of the tournament, we feel that a new feat is still possible.

Finally, we talked about it above, Hugo Gaston will close the ball in night session against Rune.

Today's weather

No rain, a lot of sun and a few clouds, we're not going to be too bad this Saturday at Roland-Garros.

However, bring a sweater.

Ten degrees in the morning, it rises to 21 in the afternoon before dropping to 17 degrees in the evening.

Not ideal for taking out the shorts.

The daring prediction of the day

He comes back from nowhere after the last years of struggle rotten by injuries.

Belgian David Goffin has everything in his game to hit Hubert Hurkacz.

The Pole may be seeded No. 12 and Wimbledon semi-finalist last year, he is not a great clay court specialist.

The opportunity is great for Goffin to make a place for himself in the second week of Roland-Garros where he has not set foot since 2018.
