The French Open 2020; some preventive measures
The 124th French Open will be held as usual at the Stade Roland Garros, Avenue Gordon Bennett, Paris, and spectators can attend. The qualifying rounds of the world’s greatest clay court tournament will take place from Monday September 21st to Friday September 25th and the main event from Sunday September 27th to October 11th, a week more than previous editions. However, admission will be limited to a maximum of 20,000 people per day due to the recommended social distancing and hygiene measures.
