The British hopefuls aiming to make the right impression at Roland Garros
Andy Murray and Katie Boulter lead British interest in the singles in Paris.
Emma Raducanu is sitting out the French Open but seven British players are direct entrants into the main singles draws.
Andy Murray is set to play in the year’s second grand slam, which begins on Sunday, for the final time before retirement, while Katie Boulter is the highest-ranked British player.
Here, the PA news agency looks at the home contenders.
Andy Murray
Katie Boulter
Cameron Norrie
Norrie has slipped outside the world’s top 30 after a largely disappointing last 12 months but showcased a more aggressive approach at the Australian Open that should translate well to the grass. He has reached the third round at Roland Garros the last two years but is yet to go further.
Jack Draper
Dan Evans
It has been a tough year so far for Evans, who turns 34 on Thursday. He began the season short on fitness after a calf injury and has won just five matches in 2024, dropping outside the top 50. He has always found clay difficult and will hope to find some form on the British grass.
