Roger Federer in training on the Philippe Chatrier, May 29, 2021. – CHRISTOPHE SAIDI / SIPA

Today’s poster
So yes, this is not the biggest match in perspective because the Uzbek Istomin has lost its splendor since 2017 and his surprise victory against Djoko in Melbourne, but Roger Federer’s return to Parisian ocher at snack time, doesn’t it make your mouth water? Especially that we must take advantage of every moment, not say that we see the Swiss in the area after this year.
The favorites of the day
Despite his status as the number 2 seed, Medvedev is not comfortable at Roland, where he still has not won a game in four appearances From there to fear the insane puncher Bublik? Without a doubt. To see a credible candidate for the title on the courts, you have to look instead among the women: the defending champion Swiatek (seeded n ° 8) starts against Juvan at noon, and the Canadian Andreescu enters the scene at the start of the season. afternoon against Zidansek. Also to watch the Kenin (seed n ° 4) – Ostapenko.
The French of the day
Phew, we’ll see at least one Habs qualifying today! Cornet and Tan will split from eleven o’clock, to follow on the live. With the support of the public, Caroline Garcia will also have every chance against the German Siegemund. The boys fell on the heavy: Herbert hits Sinner (seed n ° 18) early in the morning, Ruud starts the tournament for Paire. The tricolor day will end with Bourgue-Koepfer and Tsonga-Nishioka, after the start of Rinderknech (against Cilic) and Cazaux (against Majchrzak).
Today’s weather
Monday in the sun, as Cloclo sang. Not a cloud on the horizon and up to 24 ° C expected in the middle of the day. Shall we put you a lemonade with that?
The daring prediction of the day
Internally, a colleague sold us Rinderknech as the best French chance to make a third round. We laughed while pinching our noses and then… Well, Cilic isn’t what he used to be, but he’s still a client to begin with. 1 euro wagered, 1 euro lost as they say.
