In this week's news, Roland Garros has been postponed for a week—here’s what it means for the tournament and grass-court season.
**SEASONAL IMPACT**
What does it mean for the rest of the calendar?
Buckle up for one of the most packed summer schedules we’ve seen.
It means from June through September 12th, there are now four massive tournaments scheduled: Roland Garros, Wimbledon, which starts June 28th, the Tokyo Olympics set to start on July 24th and the US Open, which will be played August 30th-September 12th.
It all shapes up as a spectacular summer—if there are no further postponements.
Roland Garros’ move means the first week of grass season, including Stuttgart and Nottingham, will likely be cut.
The French Tennis Federation reportedly is offering those tournaments financial compensation for taking their spots in the calendar.
