Roland Garros is officially ON, and Paris has entered full tennis mode, and so have we. Before the main draw kicks off, we’ve got all the updates on how the French capital is gearing up for the second Grand Slam of the season.
However, Madison Keys gets injured ahead of Roland Garros, which could derail her clay-court momentum.

The courts at Roland Garros are made of clay earth. To get clay, you must first obtain the raw material: clay. This is extracted from natural quarries, then baked in ovens at around 800ºC and crushed. Each track needs between 500kg and 1000kg of clay per year. Taking into account that in the tournament it is changed daily, each day between 100 and 150kg of new ones are used. In the case of the Philippe Chatrier runway, a total of 1.5 tons are used.
