Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz could meet in the French Open semi-finals after they were drawn in the same half of the tournament, while defending women’s champion Iga Swiatek was handed a tough route to the final.
British No 1 Cameron Norrie could face Alcaraz in the fourth round, with Stefanos Tsitsipas a potential quarter-final opponent for the 20-year-old Spaniard. Djokovic, who will attempt to win a record 23rd grand slam title in Paris, was drawn in the same quarter as Andrey Rublev.
In the women’s draw, defending champion Swiatek and Barbora Krejcikova - the winners of the last three women’s singles titles at Roland Garros - could meet in the fourth round, with Victoria Azarenka also a potential opponent at that stage.
Swiatek is also projected to play Coco Gauff in the quarter-finals - in what would be a rematch of last year’s final - while the Pole also landed in the same half of the draw as Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina - who has won all three of their meetings this season.
