The action at Roland Garros is underway on Day 9 with Daria Kasatkina playing Camila Giorgi in a fourth round match on the Suzanne Lenglen court.

Madison Keys is expected to open play on Philippe Chatrier Court against No. 29 Veronika Kudermetova.

In the men’s fourth round matches, 2021 runner-up Stefanos Tsitsipas will meet Denmark’s Holger Rune and US Open champion Daniil Medvedev will have an overnight match against 33-year-old US Open 2014 champion Marin Cilic.
