Central Court at Roland-Garros on Monday: Lois Boisson faces off against three-time champion Djokovic, Andreeva-Kasatkina duel, Sinner versus Rublev in the evening session.
Ready for Roland-Garros Week 2? Here's the Lowdown
As the second week of the French Open roars to life, the French's tournament results have been scant, but that isn't dampening spirits. Eyes will be on young gun Lois Boisson, 22, as she carries the torch for the French public. With a wildcard up her sleeve, Boisson, hailing from Dijon, faces a daunting task on Monday, June 2, against world No. 3 Jessica Pegula in the second match on Court Philippe-Chatrier.
Before Boisson, Coco Gauff, who's been struggling lately, will strive to make it to the quarterfinals against world No. 20 Ekaterina Alexandrova. Mirra Andreeva and Madison Keys will fight tooth and nail to survive in Paris on the red clay, both competing on Court Suzanne-Lenglen.
On the men's side, Novak Djokovic will lock horns with British player Cameron Norrie, who shocked Daniil Medvedev in the first round. Alexander Zverev squares off against Dutch player Tallon Griekspoor, while world No. 5 Jack Draper takes on Alexander Bublik. The evening session will see world No. 1 Italian Jannik Sinner face off against Andrey Rublev, who sat out the previous round due to Arthur Fils' withdrawal, the top French player.

A Depth Look at Lois Boisson
While information about Boisson's expectations at the 2023 French Open is scarce, her performance in 2025 offers an interesting glimpse. Boisson, a 22-year-old French tennis player, made a splash at the 2025 French Open as an unseeded player, ranked 361st in the world. She stunned third-seeded Jessica Pegula to advance to the quarterfinals, which marked her first participation in the tournament and her first quarterfinal appearance since 2017 by a French player.
In 2025, Boisson shocked Pegula with a come-from-behind victory, winning the match 3-6, 6-4, 6-4. This triumph was all the more significant as Pegula was the runner-up at the 2024 U.S. Open. Boisson's success in the tournament was marked by her impressive play and her impressive quarterfinal appearance by a French player since 2017.
On Court Philippe-Chatrier, Lois Boisson, the young French tennis player hailing from Dijon, will look to replicate her 2025 quarterfinal performance against Jessica Pegula.
In 2025, Boisson, then unseeded and ranked 361st in the world, stunned Pegula to reach the quarters, a feat not achieved by a French player since 2017.
