For the Serbian champion, former number one in the ATP ranking, the road to the possible final with Sinner will not be at all easy in Paris. On his way, Novak will meanwhile find Mpetshi Perricard in the first round, a difficult and annoying opponent. Then, Valentin Royer (second round) and the Brazilian star could be there for him Joao Fonseca (in the third round). Then Casper Ruud in the round of 16, Alex De Minaur in the quarterfinals and a possible meeting with Alexander Zverev in the semifinals.

Roland Garros, “Favorite Sinner”?

According to many, Jannik Sinner’s path is more affordable, as he will face the Frenchman in the first round Clement Tabur. In the second round, at the top of the draw, Sinner would find one between the British Jacob Fearnley and the Argentine Juan Manuel Cerundolo. In the third round, the South Tyrolean would have to deal with the French Corentin Moutet, seeded number 30. In the hypothetical round of 16, an Italian derby is looming: Sinner would meet Luciano Darderiseeded number 14. In the same portion of the main draw there is also Matteo Berrettini, who faces the Hungarian Marton Fucsovics in the first round and, in the case of two successes, would find Darderi in the third round. In the quarterfinals, a possible match for Sinner is between the American Ben Shelton, seeded number 5, and the Kazakh Alexander Bublik, number 9 in the draw. The crossing with the American Frances Tiafoe, seeded number 19, is less likely.

In the semifinals, the matches would reserve a challenge with the Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime, seeded number 4, or with the Russian Daniil Medvedev, seeded number 6.
