Iga Swiatek will hope to move a step closer to a defence of her French Open title as the Roland Garros champion takes on Wang Xinyu of China on Saturday for a place in the last-16.

Elena Rybakina, who is so far leading the challenge to dethrone Swiatek in Paris, was scheduled to Spain’s Sara Sorribes Tormo but has pulled out of the French Open due to illness - while the match of the day is a contest between last year’s finalist Coco Gauff and 16-year-old breakout star Mirra Andreeva.

Casper Ruud takes on Zhang Zhizhen as Holger Rune is in action against Genaro Alberto Olivieri, while the night session sees Alexander Zverev play Frances Tiafoe on Court Philippe-Chatrier.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the Day 7 of the French Open.
