The main draw of one of the most prestigious and legendary tennis tournaments—Roland Garros—is about to begin. But before the competition kicks off, the draw takes place, and this time it's being conducted by a rather unexpected guest.
Details: The women's draw for Roland Garros is being led by PSG footballer Ousmane Dembélé. A photo shared on social network X shows him arriving for the draw ceremony itself.
Roland Garros is a tennis championship held annually in France, in Paris, over two weeks from late May to early June since 1891. It is one of the four Grand Slam tournaments, taking place after the Australian Open but before Wimbledon and the US Open.
This year, the tournament has already begun, but the qualifying stage is currently underway. The main draw will kick off next week.
Reminder: The last major tournament before Roland Garros has just wrapped up in the Italian capital. The final of the Rome Masters featured a showdown between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz.
