Day 1 of the men’s singles competition at Roland Garros will pit world’s No.3 Carlos Alcaraz of Spain against Hady Habib of Lebanon at Court Suzanne-Lenglen. Carlos Alcaraz enters the Olympic Games with a strong chance of winning the gold after winning the Wimbledon and French Open this year. Alcaraz has won 33 of 39 matches this season, winning a handful of trophies – including the two prestigious Grand Slam titles. The Spaniard could make his resume even more formidable if he can bag the gold at the end of the tournament, becoming the first Spaniard since Rafael Nadal at the 2008 Beijing Olympics to finish first in this event. Meanwhile, the 275th-rank Habib will try to pull off the biggest upset in Olympic tennis history by beating an in-form Alcaraz on the red dirt of Roland Garros. The US-born Habib has never competed in a Grand Slam tournament but boasts a 288-156 record in his career.
