On Thursday, July 25, one day before the official opening of the 2024 Olympic Games, the draw for the tennis tournament took place. An extraordinary match could happen as early as the second round.
Novak Djokovic will face Australian Matthew Ebden in the first round. Rafael Nadal will compete against Hungarian Márton Fucsovics. If both the Serbian and the Spanish players advance past their opponents, they will play each other in the second round of the Olympic tennis tournament.
The last match between these two rivals was at the 2022 Roland Garros, where Rafael Nadal emerged victorious with a 3-1 score.
Additionally, the draw revealed that Carlos Alcaraz will play Hady Habib in the first round, and Casper Ruud will face Taro Daniel.
It's worth noting that two-time Olympic champion and former world No. 1 Andy Murray has withdrawn from the singles event at the 2024 Olympics. It is worth noting that world No. 1 Jannik Sinner will miss the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. The Italian tennis player made this decision due to tonsillitis.
