Shame that the Roland Garros 2024 draw will decide Rafael Nadal in a tie too demanding for a premiere without filming. He offered quality drops, he showed a capacity for development that would put him in contention if he went a round or three more affordable than the ATP Masters 1000 champion in Rome and world number 4 Alexander Zverev who also gave a recital at that meeting.
nadal He was the most missed in Paris this Monday, June 3, the day of his 38th birthday. It would have added more luster and interest to a quality quarterfinal as the main contenders have already reached the penultimate round which will take place between Tuesday and Wednesday. The best will meet in the semis on Friday.
Without the manacorí in the competition, the pride and historic power of the ‘Big 3’ defended tooth and nail by Novak Djokovic which goes to the feat per game. Comeback early Sunday morning match Lorenzo Musetti, a second afternoon this Monday with another four and a half hour defeat to raise the score against, a 2-4 against the Argentine Francisco Cerundolo, who dominated two sets to one
Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz, semi-finalist in 2023, warned that “we are looking to win the tournament, otherwise it will be a bitter feeling.” Ambition, like Djokovic, although more rested.
The Italian did not miss the appointment Jannik Sinner, return to the quarterfinals of Roland Garros which he has not seen since his debut in 2020. Whether Djokovic reaches the final or not, he will be the new No. 1 after the tournament.
Companions are important: Stefanos TsitsipasGrigor Dimitrov, Casper Ruud or Taylor Fritz, Alexander Zverev or Holger Rune and Alex de Miñaur.
The latter, the first Australian in the Roland Garros quarterfinals in twenty years. World no. 11, he is the executioner of Daniil Medvedev, a candidate in the other three Grand Slams, not so much on clay, which he does not like. And you will see it.
According to the world order, the semi-final forecast is Djokovic-Zverev and Alcaraz-Sinner.
