2022 French Open TV, live stream schedule – OlympicTalk

The French Open was broadcast live on NBC Sports, Peacock Premium and Tennis Channel from Sunday via championship points at Roland Garros in Paris.

NBC and Peacock aired live coverage of the first day of main-draw action this Sunday, all three-day Memorial Day weekend and the women’s and men’s singles semifinals and finals from June 2-5.

Rafael Nadal, a record 13-time French Open champion, did not enter as the clear men’s favorite after failing to win a clay-court lead-up tournament for the first time since 2015, not to mention the pandemic that shortened to 2020 year. The 35-year-old also faces ongoing foot pain.

However, defending champion Novak Djokovic is the little favorite over 19-year-old citizens Carlos Alcaraz, according to PointsBet Sportsbook. Djokovic is eyeing his 21st Grand Slam singles title to tie Nadal on the men’s record.

Alcaraz, who was the same age as Nadal when Nadal won his first French Open, has won his last two tournaments, including defeating Nadal and Djokovic on consecutive days on May 6-7.

top ranking Iga Swiatek in Poland is the women’s top favorite, entering a 28-match win streak, the WTA Tour’s longest since 2013. Swiatek slipped to win the 2020 French Open, then last month climbed to No. 1 ranking for the first time after Australian Ash Barty retired already.

Three -time French Open champion Serena Williamswho last played at Wimbledon in June, will lose to Roland Garros for the first time since 2017. It is not known when or when the 40-year-old will play again.

OlympicTalk is now available Apple News. My favorite!
