The third round of the 2025 French Open at Roland Garros in Paris continues on Saturday with some big names taking to the court as they bid to win the only grand slam of the year to be played on clay.
There is a heavy British presence in the men’s side of the draw, as Jack Draper takes on Joao Fonseca of Brazil on Court Simonne-Mathieu, before an all-UK affair between Cameron Norrie and Jacob Fearnley later in the day on the same court.
As well as that, sixth seed Novak Djokovic takes on Filip Misolic of Austria on Philippe-Chatrier, while top-ranked Jannik Sinner and world No.3 Alexander Zverev are also playing, against Jiri Lehecka and Flavio Cobolli respectively.
In the women’s singles tournament Marie Bouzkova is taking on highly fancied American Coco Gauff, in a match that has been delayed from Friday’s action, while world number three Jessica Pegula takes on Marketa Vondrousova.

French Open betting today: Top tips, predictions, odds and favourites for Saturday
Here’s our pick of the best bets on Day Seven of the French Open. Odds are correct at time of publish with the firms listed, but subject to change.
Joao Fonseca to beat Jack Draper (7/4 with Bet365)
- Jannik Sinner to win 3-1 vs. Jiri Lehecka (13/5 with Paddy Power)
- Over 2.5 sets in Daria Kasatkina vs. Paula Badosa (6/5 with SkyBet)
- Jessica Pegula to win 2-1 vs. Marketa Vondrousova (11/4 with Betfair)
Draper came through an epic clash against resurgent 38-year-old Parisian Gael Monfils in front of a partisan crowd in the second round, with the Brit defeating the Frenchman 3-1 after around three hours on court. That will have taken it out of Draper, who now faces 18-year-old Fonseca. He has breezed to a couple of straight-sets victories, against Hubert Hurkacz and Pierre-Hugues Herbert. Draper’s game seems well suited to the clay surface but it could well be that he suffers an upset in the third round, if Fonseca continues to live up to his promise.
Sinner has returned from his doping ban in excellent form. The Italian has romped into the third round, following straight-set victories against French duo Arthur Rinderknech and veteran Richard Gasquet. There will be a concern that he has not yet been tested. Lehecka is unseeded, despite being the world No. 27, and the Czech has enjoyed emphatic victories in the opening couple of rounds. Sinner should win but Lehecka will provide a tougher test than what has gone before.
Kasatkina has been pushed hard in both her opening matches so far, but will have to step it up again vs. Badosa. The world No. 10 has enjoyed back-to-back three-set victories, including an eye-catching come-from-behind opening-round defeat of Naomi Osaka, but these two are evenly matched, and so taking this one to go the distance seems very likely.
Pegula is stepping up her challenge after seeing off Anca Todoni and Ann Li. The 31-year-old American is at her highest-ever world ranking (No. 3), and is looking to go better than her previous benchmark at the French Open of a quarter-final finish in 2022. She takes on 2023 Wimbledon winner Vondrousova, who edged past Magdalena Frech in the decider in round two. Pegula remains favourite but this should be another stiff test.
