Tennis News! - June 10th
“This Week’s Drop Shots” details the latest results, hot takes, and breaking news from around the tennis world in a quick and easy-to-read format.
Hey tennis fans! It’s all Roland Garros this week as the French Open action comes down to the wire! Also…scroll down and check out how you can get FREE reels of string!
Men’s French Open
On the men’s side, things are pretty much as expected…Djokovic and Nadal are set to clash in the top half of the draw, while young contenders Tsitsipas and Zverev will close out the bottom half. Nadal and Tsitsipas are both decently heavy favorites to win (-280 and -260 respectively, last we saw) and reach the final. The semifinal action kicks off tomorrow with the NextGen match up first on Chatrier. Regardless of how the semis shake out, we will get to see a storied veteran take on a young challenger in the finals…which is all we can hope for as young players try to end the reign of the Big 3!
Women’s French Open
Unlike the men’s side, the women’s draw has been anything but expected. Ironically, we can’t be too surprised given how majors have shaken out over the last several years, but it still shocks you…the final four players were Sakkari, Pavlyuchenkova, Zidansek, and Krejcikova??? We’ll get to see a new major winner now as Pavlyuchenkova and Krejcikova battle for the Roland Garros title.
