The action will heat up on Day 8 of the 2023 French Open with the start of the fourth round matches.
Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz are getting closer to their eventual semifinal showdown. But for now, they need to get past Juan Pablo Varillas and Lorenzo Musetti, respectively.
Aryna Sabalenka and Sloane Stephens will face off in a battle between Grand Slam champions. While the former is gunning for a maiden quarterfinal showing in Paris, the latter has made the last eight thrice before.
Elina Svitolina is also on the cusp of reaching yet another Grand Slam quarterfinal. The Ukrainian will have to get the better of Daria Kasatkina, who reached the semifinals last year, to do so.
