French Open: Day 9 order of play and schedule – When are Iga Swiatek, Casper Ruud and Holger Rune playing?
It’s getting really serious now at the French Open. Monday – day nine of Roland-Garros – sees the completion of the fourth-round stage with the likes of Iga Swiatek, Casper Ruud and Holger Rune in action.
Ons Jabeur, Coco Gauff and Alexander Zverev are also bidding to make the last eight in Paris in what looks like a mouthwatering day of tennis.
Top women’s match – Iga Swiatek v Lesia Tsurenko

Zverev edges tight contest with Tiafoe to qualify for fourth round
YESTERDAY AT 22:27
Swiatek has now won her last 10 sets and 19 games, and is full of confidence as she prepares to take on the 66th-ranked Lesia Tsurenko.
The pair went head-to-head in the first round of Roland-Garros last year as well as the second round of the Rome Open in May. In the two meetings, Swiatek has dropped just four games against her Ukrainian opponent.
Can Tsurenko pull off a massive surprise and knock out the defending champion?
Top men’s match – Casper Ruud v Nicolas Jarry
On paper, fourth seed Casper Ruud should make it past world No. 35 Nicolas Jarry with ease – but it may not be that simple.
Jarry is on an eight-match winning streak after winning the Geneva Open title last week, beating none other than Ruud in the quarter-final.
