Demon Reveals Battle Ahead of French Open

  • Fifteen Australian players are competing at Roland Garros starting May 25, with Maya Joint and Ajla Tomljanovic set to face each other in the first round in Paris.
  • This matchup arises from Joint's Paris main draw debut at 19 years old and Tomljanovic's experience in her tenth French Open at age 32, with a warm-up semi-final in Morocco planned.
  • Alex de Minaur, the men's ninth seed and 2024 quarter-finalist, faces a challenging draw including opener Laslo Djere and possible third-round Jakub Mensik, a rising Czech teenager.
  • De Minaur, nicknamed 'Demon', has beaten Djere three times and aims for a quarter-final meeting with world No.1 Jannik Sinner, although he has only taken one set off Sinner in ten matches.
  • The tough draw for Australians suggests hard early tests, but the Joint-Tomljanovic match guarantees at least one female Aussie in round two, while de Minaur's progression could lead to high-profile clashes.
