The French Open 2023 Qualifiers are currently underway, with the highly anticipated two-week event set to run until Sunday, June 11th. Rennae Stubbs, host of SportsTalkOnPrime, recently asked former American player Jill Craybas about her favorites for the men’s singles and her predictions for the winner.
Jill Craybas’s Favorites
Jill Craybas named Novak Djokovic, Carlos Alcaraz, Holger Rune, and Stefanos Tsitsipas as notable standouts in men’s singles, adding that there are many other contenders with a shot at the title. She highlighted the increasing competition and anticipation for a breakthrough winner in the men’s game, mirroring the women’s side in recent years.
Adding Daniil Medvedev to the List
Craybas also included World No. 2 Daniil Medvedev on her list of favorites, expressing excitement about the potential for new champions to emerge during the event. Medvedev is a formidable player despite his self-confessed dislike for the clay surface, having won his first clay title at this year’s Italian Open.
Other Contenders and French Open Details
As the anticipation for the 2023 French Open builds, fans and experts alike are eager to see who will come out on top in the battle for the Grand Slam title. World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz, fresh off his 2022 US Open win, and 22-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic are both strong contenders for the French Open crown. The first rounds of the tournament are set to begin on Sunday, May 28th.
