French Open Tennis.
12 Aussies - 6 Men & 6 Women - will contest.
Obvioulsy, our best chance is Ash Barty, last year's winner.
Djokovich is the #1 seed, in the Men's, with Nidal, #3 & Federer, #8.
Kyrgios pulled out, due to Covid concerns.
Highest ranked Aussie Man is Alex de Minaur, at 22.

There may be quotes out there that Roger knows he can't win but needs the match practice in preparation for Wimbledon.K wrote:...
I'm a bit confused that Nadal, Djoker, Roger are on the same side of the draw... because I thought Roger said he was going to skip the French Open...
