It is this Thursday evening at 7 p.m. that the singles tables for this 2022 edition will be established. What is already historic is the total absence of French seeded players. In the women’s tournament, it has become the norm in recent years, but in the men’s tournament, it had not been seen since 1999. No national representative will therefore be safe from falling on the world n°1, Novak Djokovic or Iga Swiatek.
The real suspense will concern the positioning of Rafael Nadal (seeded n°5) and Carlos Alcaraz (n°6). If it is impossible for the two Spaniards to collide before a possible semi-final, each of them runs the risk of falling on Novak Djokovic in the quarters.
