The highlight of the day took place on the Philippe-Chatrier court between 2 and 3pm with “The Battle”. Team Yannick Noah went head-to-head with Team Amelie Mauresmo in a thrilling tennis match featuring former French tennis champions and rising stars; Amélie Mauresmo, Yannick Noah, Richard Gasquet, Paul-Henri Mathieu, Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard, Gael Monfils, Mansour Bahrami, Moïse Kouame, Cédric Pioline, Arthur Rinderknech, Elsa Jacquemot, Marion Bartoli, Fabrice Santoro and Ksenia Efremova all took part. Dancers also accompanied Lenie, Jungeli & Emma’s live performances, bringing the court to life.
Thanks to our partner Emirates, 15 young tennis fans, supported by the Attrap’la Balle charity, had the opportunity to go behind the scenes at Roland-Garros and visit the Emirates box, situated at the heart of the iconic Philippe-Chatrier court. Throughout the day, they were able to watch top tennis stars train up close and enjoy the many activities on offer within the stadium, such as the pickleball court on the Philippe-Chatrier north forecourt.
