The upcoming French Open semifinals feature four of the world’s top seven ranked players, all vying for their first title at Roland Garros. In the first match, No. 2 Jannik Sinner will take on No. 3 Carlos Alcaraz, both Grand Slam champions with impressive titles under their belts. Sinner won the Australian Open earlier this year, while Alcaraz claimed the US Open in 2022 and Wimbledon last summer.
The second match of the day will see No. 4 Alexander Zverev facing off against No. 7 Casper Ruud, both looking to secure their first Grand Slam title. Ruud has been the runner-up at Roland Garros for the past two years, making him a formidable opponent for Zverev. This semifinal lineup marks a significant moment in French Open history as it is only the second time since Rafael Nadal’s dominance began in 2005 that a member of the “Big 3” – Nadal, Novak Djokovic, and Roger Federer – won’t be crowned champion. Stan Wawrinka broke the trend in 2015 by claiming the men’s singles title.
The French Open men’s semifinals will take place on Friday, June 7th at Roland Garros in Paris. The matches are scheduled to begin at 8:30 a.m ET on Court Philippe-Chatrier
