At the Stade Roland Garros in Paris, France, the much-awaited French Open 2024 tennis tournament gets underway on Monday. On May 26, the second Grand Slam of the year's main draw matches will begin. Sumit Nagal and Rohan Bopanna are among the Indian players who are participating in the competition.
Meanwhile, all the eyes will be on legendary players Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal, who is also known as the ‘King of Clay’. Nadal remains the most successful men's singles player in the history of the French Open with 14 titles to his name. Nadal has missed the Roland Garros last year due to an injury. It was the first time since 2004 that Nadal missed the French Open. Djokovic will enter this year's French Open as the defending champion.
