As the French Open begins, the storyline of the second Grand Slam of the year is taking shape. Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner look higher than the rest of the men's side, and defending champion Igaświątek will have to go in the quarterfinals and must surpass one of four players in the world if she wants to be the first player to win four women's singles in a row in the open era.

Ranked first in the world, Aryna Sabalenka is seeking his first Grand Slam title. Novak Djokovic is still pursuing his 25th major, and both on the ATP and WTA Tours want to play their first big game in one of the four biggest games in the sport.
