Raducanu vs Swiatek start time and how to watch French Open today
Emma Raducanu faces a hugely tough test against Iga Swiatek at the French Open today. The 2021 US Open winner overcame sickness and a medical timeout to make a winning start to only her second-ever campaign on the red clay at Roland Garros on Monday, beating China's Wang Xinyu in three sets 7-5 4-6 6-3. But Raducanu will now have to raise her game significantly in the second round against Swiatek, the fifth seed who has four French Open titles to her name since 2020 and has won in each of the last three years. The former world No1 - who also took Raducanu's title at Flushing Meadows in 2022 - is seeking to become the first female player in the Open era to win four in a row in Paris, needing just an hour to brush aside Slovakia's Rebecca Sramkova 6-3 6-3 in round one. Raducanu vs Swiatek is the third match scheduled for centre court on Philippe-Chatrier on Wednesday, after last year's losing women's finalist Jasmine Paolini has battled Ajla Tomljanovic from 11am BST and defending men's champion Carlos Alcaraz then meets Fabian Marozsan. The length of those preceding matches will obviously determine the exact start time for Raducanu and Swiatek, but the contest is expected to get underway at approximately 2pm BST. That is subject to change. Men's 10th seed Holger Rune against American Emilio Nava is the scheduled night match on Court Philippe-Chatrier on Wednesday. TV channel: In the UK, live broadcasts of the 2025 French Open can be found on TNT Sports. Coverage begins from 10am BST on TNT Sports 1 and TNT Sports 4. Live stream: TNT Sports subscribers can also watch events unfold from Roland Garros live online via the Discovery+ app and website. This is the fifth meeting between these two players on the WTA Tour, with Raducanu yet to beat Swiatek. In fact, she has yet to even take a single set off her, losing twice in the Stuttgart quarter-finals in both 2022 and 2024 as well as in the last 16 at Indian Wells in 2023. The duo last met in the last 32 of the Australian Open in Melbourne back in January, when Swiatek thrashed Raducanu 6-1 6-0 on Rod Laver Arena - Raducanu winning just a solitary game in the joint-heaviest defeat of her career so far.
