The French Open will be streamed live on NBC Sports, Peacock Premium and Tennis Channel through championship points at Roland Garros in Paris.
NBC and Peacock will broadcast live Memorial Day weekend, then the men’s and women’s singles semifinals and finals next week.
Follow live updates from the French Open as the first round continues on Matchday 3 at Roland Garros and Daniil Medvedev opens his campaign against Facundo Bagnis. The US Open champion and Australian Open finalist has a chance to regain his spot at world No. 1 if he advances further than Novak Djokovic in Paris, although the Russian isn’t best suited to the clay and still feels himself dismissed on the way from an injury power.
Medvedev returned in Geneva last week, his only appearance on clay this season, but was defeated in straight sets by Richard Gasquet in the opening round. Today he meets Bagnis, number 103 in the world, in the opening game on Court Suzanne-Lenglen. Later, last year’s French Open finalist Stefanos Tsitsipas faces a tougher first-round match against 20-year-old Italian Lorenzo Musetti.
Paula Badosa, Aryna Sabalenka and Simona Halep star on the women’s side of the draw, while home favorite Jo-Wilfried Tsonga will look to upset 8th-seeded Casper Ruud in what appears to be his last appearance at the French Open. Follow all Roland Garros action and results below:
Rafael Nadal, a record 13-time French Open champion, did not emerge as the men’s clear favorite after failing to win a clay-court preparatory tournament for the first time since 2015, not counting 2020 cut short by the pandemic. The 35-year-old has also been dealing with persistent foot pain.
Instead, defending champion Novak Djokovic started as a slight favorite over 19-year-old compatriot Carlos Alcaraz, according to PointsBet Sportsbook. Djokovic is targeting a 21st Grand Slam singles title to tie Nadal for men’s record.
Alcaraz, who was the same age as Nadal when Nadal won his first French Open, has won his last two tournaments, including beating Nadal and Djokovic on consecutive days on May 6th and 7th.
Leader Iga Swiatek of Poland is the overwhelming favorite for the women and is on a 28-game winning streak, the longest on the WTA Tour since 2013. Swiatek broke through to win the 2020 French Open and then rose in place last month 1 in the rankings for the first time after Australia’s Ash Barty retired.
Three-time French Open winner Serena Williams, who last played at Wimbledon last June, will miss Roland Garros for the first time since 2017. It is not known if or when the 40-year-old will play again.
The 2022 French Open starts today and for once, 13-time champion Rafael Nadal is not a favourite. Hard to believe, right? Instead, defending French Open champion Novak Djokovic is betting on his 21st Grand Slam title. The first round starts on day one with Dominic Thiem, Alexander Zverev, Coco Gauff and Ons Jabeur all in action. Aussies can watch every game for free on 9Gem so make sure you know how to watch French Open 2022 free live stream from anywhere.
Spain’s 13-time French Open champion Rafael Nadal begins his campaign against unseeded Australian Jordan Thompson in main court Philippe Chatrier before defending men’s singles champion Novak Djokovic takes on Japan’s Yoshihito Nishioka in the opening round.
Also in the main pitch is WTA world No. 1 Iga Swiatek, who is in great form and will look to regain the French Open crown she first won in 2020 as she starts her campaign against France’s unseeded Diane Parry.
The French Open are back with the second Grand Slam of the season.
The men’s singles is wide open, with Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Spanish sensation Carlos Alcaraz all having hot picks, although Stefanos Tsitsipas enjoyed a friendly draw, increasing his chances.
In women’s singles look no further than Iga Swiatek, who is in fine form and looks well positioned to add a second French Open to be crowned after triumphing in 2020.
Simona Halep and Maria Sakkari are likely to be the strongest competitors for the Polish star.

The first round matchups are set as the men’s and women’s singles draws for the French Open were announced on Thursday. Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz are all on the same side of the bracket. If everything goes as expected, top seed and defending champion Djokovic could meet Nadal in the quarterfinals. This would be a good opportunity for Nadal – a 13-time French Open champion – to make Djokovic pay for beating him in last year’s semifinals.
Serena Williams will not play at the French Open for the first time since 2017. She hasn’t played since last June, when she sustained an ankle injury at Wimbledon.
