Roland Garros, Trevisan-Fernandez: quarter-finals today | The direct

Today at Roland Garros women’s and men’s quarter-finals. The women begin at 12, with the only Italian still remaining in the race: Martina Trevisan goes in search of the semifinals against Canadian Leylah Annie Fernandez. Meanwhile, the blue number 59 in the world equals her best result in a Grand Slam: always the quarter-finals in Paris, two years ago, when she was defeated by the future champion Swiatek. This is the first cross between Martina and the Canadian. Following the US derby between Coco Gauff and Sloane Stephens.

Then it’s up to the men with the first two matches at the top of the board. The first intersection is Zverev-Alcaraz. The world number 3 reached the quarterfinals without shining and seems rather far from the amazing form in which he ended 2021. Faced with the new phenomenon of world tennis, the 19-year-old from Murcia, fresh from success on the ground in Madrid. Alcaraz then skipped Rome to better prepare for the first slam of the season. The record says 2-1 Zverev. In the evening, not before 8.45 pm, the most famous and fascinating challenge. Novak Djokovic versus Rafa Nadal. The world number one challenges the king of Paris (13 wins): the precedents say 30-28 for Nole.
