Katie Boulter vs Madison Keys start time: When is French Open match?

Yahoo5 days ago

Katie Boulter takes on Madison Keys at the French Open as the British No 1 looks to build on her first main draw win at Roland Garros.
Boulter claimed her first victory on the Paris clay as she defeated Carole Monnet 6-7 6-1 6-1 and said it was a victory she 'would not forget'.
'Sometimes I find it really difficult on this surface,' Boulter said, 'I persevered and tried my hardest to bring some good tennis and obviously my first Roland Garros win, you never forget those ones.'
Up next for the British No 1 is a date with Australian Open champion Keys, who is a former semi-finalist at the French Open with that result coming in 2022.

Lorenzo Musetti beats Frances Tiafoe to reach the French Open semifinals

PARIS — Lorenzo Musetti used his sleek one-handed backhand and sprint-then-slide court coverage to reach his first semifinal at the French Open, and second at a Grand Slam tournament, by beating Frances Tiafoe 6-2, 4-6, 7-5, 6-2 in the same stadium where he won a bronze medal at last year's Olympics. When the match ended, Musetti, a 23-year-old Italian, rolled up his green shirt's right sleeve and flexed his biceps. He'll face defending champion Carlos Alcaraz or Tommy Paul for a berth in the championship match. No. 8 seed Musetti and No. 1 Jannik Sinner — who faces unseeded Alexander Bublik in the quarterfinals— gave Italy two male quarterfinalists at Roland-Garros for the first time since 1973. Tiafoe also was part of a rare accomplishment for his country: He and Paul were the first American men to get to the round of eight in Paris since Andre Agassi in 2003 — and the first duo to do it in the same year since Jim Courier and Pete Sampras in 1996. In women's action, three-time defending champion Iga Swiatek and No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka both won in straight sets to set up a semifinal showdown. No. 15 Tiafoe, a 27-year-old from Maryland, hadn't dropped a set on the way to the quarterfinals. But he wasn't up to the task against Musetti, a semifinalist at Wimbledon in 2024. Wearing a chain around his neck with a pendant reading 'Big Foe' in capital letters, Tiafoe missed all eight first serves in his initial service game and sent a backhand wide to give Musetti a 2-0 lead. Tiafoe looked at his coach, David Witt, and complained about the wind. 'He didn't start as he wanted, but today it was really complicated to play well,' Musetti said. 'It was so windy and it was difficult to manage to hit properly.' At match's end, Musetti had more winners, 44-33, and far fewer unforced errors, 51-32. Still, when two-time U.S. Open semifinalist Tiafoe smacked a forehand to even the match at a set apiece, he let out a roar and shouted: 'Let's go! Let's go!' During that set, Musetti was warned for unsportsmanlike conduct for kicking a tennis ball that inadvertently hit a linesperson. Unlike most top-level tennis tournaments, which rely on electronic line-calling, there are still humans on court at Roland-Garros to decide whether shots land in or out. The point of the match came in the third set's sixth game. Musetti stretched wide of the doubles alley near the net to reach a shot at a seemingly impossible angle. Tiafoe then did the same in response, sending his near the baseline. Musetti ran and, with his back to the net, twisted his body to somehow flick a low ball back with a half-swing. It worked, though, and Tiafoe — perhaps startled to see the point wasn't over — netted an awkward, shoulder-high volley. That set swung Musetti's way when he broke in its last game. On a 12-stroke exchange, Tiafoe tried an ill-advised and ill-struck drop shot that the speedy Musetti got to, conjuring up a down-the-line backhand winner. Now it was his turn to punch the air and yell. Told by the postmatch interviewer that he has an elegant game, Musetti joked: 'I mean, we are Italian. We are elegant.' He is 13-4 in his French Open career, and three of those losses came against an opponent ranked No. 1 — Novak Djokovic twice, Alcaraz once. The only way he'll need to deal with the top-ranked man this time in Paris is if it's his pal Sinner standing across the net on Sunday with the trophy in the offing.

Aryna Sabalenka plays in front of empty seats at French Open, calls for fairer scheduling

PARIS — Aryna Sabalenka is the top-ranked player in women's tennis. Yet even that status didn't spare her from competing in front of empty seats at Roland-Garros, something she says isn't fair. The three-time Grand Slam champion faced China's Zheng Qinwen in the first quarterfinal match, beginning at 11 a.m. on Court Philippe-Chatrier. When play began, large sections of the 15,000-seat stadium were still unoccupied — a common sight in the early hours at the French Open, when many ticket holders opt for lunch or arrive later in the day. 'It was a big match and probably would make more sense to put us a little bit later just so more people could watch it,' Sabalenka said after her 7-6 (3), 6-3 win. ' I definitely think that would make more sense to kind of like move our match for a little bit later.' But scheduling more night sessions for women is proving a tough issue to resolve for French Open tournament director Amélie Mauresmo. Since the introduction of night sessions in 2021, only four women's singles matches have been featured in that marquee time slot. Serena Williams played in the first-ever night match at Roland-Garros, but pandemic restrictions meant the stands were empty. No women's matches have been scheduled for the evening session this year, something Sabalenka said should change. Asked about her views on the fact that women haven't played a single night match this year, the player from Belarus said they deserve 'equal treatment.' 'There was a lot of ... great battles, a lot of great matches which would be cool to see as night sessions,' she said. 'Just more people in the stands watching these incredible battles. And just to show ourselves to more people. I definitely agree that we deserve to be put on a bigger stage. Like better timing, more people watching.' There was, however, one upside to the early start for Sabalenka ahead of her semifinal against four-time champion Iga Swiatek. 'I'm happy to finish earlier and then I have a half day off and I can just enjoy the city and do all the things that I have to do,' she said.

Angelina Jolie And Brad Pitt's Daughter Shiloh Reintroduces Herself With New Name

What's in a name? For Shiloh Jolie, quite a bit. On May 30, Variety reported that the 19-year-old attended French designer Isabel Marant's capsule launch with Net-A-Porter. But she wasn't there as just another A-list offspring. She was a choreographer with a new name. Gone was 'Shiloh Jolie,' who reemerged simply as Shi and reportedly lent her choreography talents to the debut of singer-songwriter Luella's new single, 'Naïve.' This isn't the first evolution of the teen's identity. In 2024, she legally dropped 'Pitt' from her surname, becoming Shiloh Jolie — trimming the hyphen and, perhaps, some history. She's not alone. That same year, her younger sister Vivienne was credited as 'Vivienne Jolie' for her work on the Broadway musical 'The Outsiders.' It's unclear whether Vivienne's new surname has been made official, but the public-facing change was unmistakable. On May 29, Pitt broke his long silence on his lengthy divorce from Jolie. Asked if he felt relief now that the proceedings had ended, he replied: 'No, I don't think it was that major of a thing.' 'Just something coming to fruition. Legally,' he added. Jolie and Pitt share six children. Four still carry the surname 'Jolie-Pitt,' for now.
