Linda Fruhvirtova vs Elsa Jacquemot prediction
Elsa Jacquemot is one of the big French hopes on the women’s side at Roland-Garros and it would be a huge letdown for the home crowd if she was to be eliminated early. The 23-year-old from Lyon made it to the third round in 2025, her best ever Grand Slam finish which included victories over Maria Sakkari and Alycia Parks before falling to Lois Boisson in a three-set thriller.
Qualifier Linda Fruhvirtova is not to be underestimated, having already made it through three tough matches to reach this stage. But Jacquemot should be full of confidence coming into familiar territory and with the crowd likely to be right behind her, now feels like the right time for her to end what has been an extended spell of poor form with a victory over Fruhvirtova.
