Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into the French Open draw for 2024, and let me tell you, it’s been a ride. I wanted to see who’s playing who, when they’re playing, and all that good stuff. I went on a hunt for a simple PDF of the draw schedule, because who doesn’t love a good visual?
First, I tried to find the official Roland Garros website. I thought I’d strike gold there, but I only found bits and pieces. I had to check different places for the men’s singles, the women’s singles, and the doubles! It took some time to put everything together.
I found a few sports news sites that had some info. They were talking about the big names like Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal, and of course, I got sidetracked reading about their past victories and potential matchups. There’s some buzz about 17 French players in the draw, with Ugo Humbert, Adrian Mannarino, and Arthur Fils leading the pack. It seems like Fils is going to play.
Finding the Bracket
I eventually found a bracket on a sports network’s site. It had the whole shebang – Round 1, Round 2, all the way to the finals. The dates are from May 20th to June 9th, which is helpful. I wanted a complete PDF though, so I kept looking.
There was this one PDF I stumbled upon that had a partial women’s draw, starting with Iga Swiatek against Leolia Jeanjean. It only went up to the quarter-finals, though. Not bad, but not exactly what I needed.
- I wanted a single PDF with everything: men’s, women’s, the whole deal.
- I found separate draws for men’s and women’s singles on different sites.
- I got sidetracked reading about the players’ histories.
- I eventually pieced together a full picture, but it took some work!
After more digging, I ended up combining information from various sources to create my own comprehensive view of the draw. I’ve got it all laid out now, and it feels good to have it organized. It wasn’t the easiest task, but hey, I got it done! Now, I can sit back, relax, and get ready for some awesome tennis action from May 20th to June 9th!
