The cream has risen to the top in the bottom half of the men’s draw and a French Open quarter-final between third seed Carlos Alcaraz and world number nine Stefanos Tsitsipas should live up to all expectations.
Alcaraz has overcome an injury-ravaged preparation in fine style, dropping only one set across his four tournament wins and beating Sebastian Korda and Felix Auger-Aliassime in his two most recent encounters.
However, he should expect his toughest test yet against Tsitsipas, who was the French Open runner-up in 2021 and appears to be performing every bit as good this season.
The Greek star has dropped only two sets across his four tournament wins and there was a lot to like about his come-from-behind victory over Matteo Arnaldi in the last 16.
The winner of Tuesday's tussle will face Grigor Dimitrov or Jannik Sinner in the final four.
