French Open - Paris

Roland Garros, the clay Grand Slam, played outdoors in Paris. The pace measures in line with these players' norms, which on clay means long rallies, big margins and almost nothing for free: holds sit at 77% and the returner stays live all afternoon. Barely half of matches end in straights, so best of five does its job and depth wins out. Nadal has nine titles here, Alcaraz two.
