FAVORITE DJOKOVIC: Novak Djokovic leads 6-2 in his confrontations against Stefanos Tsitsipas. He has even won the last five, his last defeat against the Greek dating from the Shanghai Masters 1000 in … 2019. In their last duel in the final of Roland-Garros 2021, the Serb had come back two sets to triumph (6- 7, 2-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-4).

ALMOST A YEAR LATER, TIME FOR REVENGE FOR TSITSIPAS? Opposed to Novak Djokovic in the final, Sunday (4:00 p.m.), Stefanos Tsitsipas will try to conquer a second M1000 during this season on ocher. A coronation would consolidate his position as favorite for Roland-Garros. Yes, but, the Athenian finds the world n°1 in the final. The two men have not met since the Roland 2021 final, which marked a break with the Greek.
