[upbeat music] Welcome everyone to Monday Match Analysis. I'm Gil Gross, and it is time for a preview of Roland-Garros 2026. We're going quarter by quarter, dark horses, upset alerts, popcorn match-ups, quarterfinal predictions, final weekend predictions, all coming your way. Just a couple of notes before we get started, things I think you should know/be reminded of. Uh, first off, weather. Week one, scorching hot. That means two things. First off, it's not gonna be playing very slow. When it's really hot in Paris, these conditions are not slow. Servers like it, offensive players like it. It's gonna be lively. Obviously, conditioning also comes into play a bit more. You're gonna be playing four or five hours, and that's a real test of, of your fitness and your ability to endure the stifling hot conditions. So just something to watch out for in week one of the tournament in particular. Of course, a lot of absences. I think it's also worth noting, no Carlos Alcaraz. Everybody knows that. No Jack Draper, no Lorenzo Musetti. Literally three guys who I predicted to finish the year in the top five. Pretty brutal to be missing three of them in one tournament. Uh, Holger Rune and Sebastian Korda
