French Open order of play today: Day 3 schedule including Novak Djokovic, Aryna Sabalenka and Katie Boulter

Novak Djokovic and Aryna Sabalenka begin their French Open campaigns today as the first round concludes.

Djokovic was watching on as Rafael Nadal was beaten by Alexander Zverev on Monday, and tonight the world number one gets his chance to take centre stage against Pierre-Hugues Herbert.

Earlier in the day, second seed Sabalenka, arguably the biggest threat to Iga Swiatek’s hopes of a third straight Roland Garros title, faces Erika Andreeva, while Elena Rybakina faces Greet Minnen.

Four British players have been knocked out already and the final two standing are both in action, looking to reach the second round. Dan Evans is the underdog against Holger Rune, and Katie Boulter faces a tough opening clash against Paula Badosa.
