Key events
Preamble
Morning all and welcome to day two of Roland-Garros 2023!
We’ve got an almost indecent amount of joy for you today. We begin with the mercurial hands and teenage attitude of Benoît Paire, who meets Cameron Norrie, and at almost the same time Karolina Pliskova takes on Sloane Stephens, the 2018 finalist.
Then, in the afternoon, Novak Djokovic joins proceedings, likewise Felix Auger-Aliassime – his match against Fabio Fognini could be a goodun – after which Carlos Alcaraz, the number one seed, makes his bow, along with Caroline Garcia and Petra Kvitova.
And that’s just the show courts! Elsewhere, there’s Kaia Kanepi v Madison Keys and Stan Wawrinka v Albert Ramos-Vinolas, while Dominic Thiem, Jelena Ostapenko and Francis Tiafoe also begin their campaigns.
On y va!
