Open live predictions
the reality

Did you know 63% of tennis matches start late?

Matches run late because the preceding match on the same court runs long. In reality, the only ones that start on time are the first matches on court each day — drop those, and a whopping 89% of matches start late.

Start late: match started more than 15 minutes past the scheduled time.

Skip the evening guesswork.

71 minutes is the median across 235 matches in the second week of the 2026 French Open, first match of each court excluded.
