This is a very sexist schedule. French Open is the ugliest slam in term of organization.

Indeed.....the women are mere bookends to the men's matches..... Yet, it's understandable for the men's Big 3 are still in the mix, holding most of the interest for the locals. There is nothing for the ladies at this moment to offset that attraction. So, the women's matches are prelims in the beginning and light desserts at the end of the day, exemplified by Serena's last day in Paris with 4 women's matches in play and not a stream anywhere for those matches to be seen, a complete shutout for a Slam.....

Rex: you got access to this link?

It is all in russian, but I manage to deduce enough :-): click on WTA, and below the ranking, there are links to livestreams. It is all in Russian, but google translate comes to the rescue when identifying names in the russian alphabet.

Fognini losing temper in set 3: Got a warning for bad behaviour.

Routing for my Skan member Zverev; lost the fist set, but won the second and a break ahead in the third.

Redo the draw. Girls like Swiatek should be fed to Osaka, Azarenka, Venus, Svitolina in R1.
First round should oppose top-64 to bottom-64 to avoid crap like this.
Shame.

No, Grav', I don' t have that link and I won't use it, because it's "too" Russian, looking vulnerable to viruses and other nasties. I have another link https://live-stream365.com/sport/tennis.php (I call it my Russian 3) that is a derivative of another betting site (ripped off by Russia) that I use sparingly, but attempted to use same when TC+ didn't cover the other 3 matches in play when Serena last played Paris. Those matches were also blocked on that streaming site. Yet, I keep the aforementioned link to merely follow Antonia Lottner who remains on the ITF circuit and out of the top-100 where she duly belongs and also to catch the game of Vicky Duval whenever she plays an event. But, as stated ere, I'm satisfied with TC+'s coverage of the women's game this year, for I've seen all the matches I've wanted to see with good video quality. However, they (TC & TC+) should not cover the French, for just as last year their coverage was poor (only 5 show courts, but more courts this year 8), coupled w/shutouts if matches goes beyond their slotted time for the day and/or NBC preempts their coverage on the weekends.
