Nadal, looking for his 11th French Open victory, faces his first seeded competition of the tournament in Richard Gasquet. The Frenchman is seeded 27th and has looked good thus far ... but not as good as Nadal, who handily dispatched Guido Pella in his second-round matchup, only dropping four games in total.

Williams is facing her second seeded competitor, after she managed to get through No. 17 Ashleigh Barty in three sets the last time out. Williams dropped the first set, but powered through the next two to win just her second Grand Slam match since the finals of the 2017 Australian Open.

Simona Halep, the top seed for the women, will be in action after blazing through her second-round opponent, Taylor Townsend. Halep will be up against Andrea Petkovic on Saturday.

You can find full schedule and results for the men’s draw here and the women’s draw here. Below is all you need to know to watch and follow the French Open, including a list of men’s and women’s singles matches.
