Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz are a win away from having two shots at an Olympic medal in the men’s doubles, but face their toughest challenge yet against the American pair of Rajeev Ram and Austin Krajicek.
Nadal and Alcaraz survived a tense final tiebreak to beat the Dutch team of Tallon Griekspoor and Wesley Koolhoof and reach the quarter-finals on Tuesday at a raucous Roland Garros in Paris.
Ram and Krajicek are former world number 1s in doubles and are an experienced team, but Nadal and Alcaraz know a win today would guarantee a shot at a medal either in the semi-finals or in the bronze medal match.
Elsewhere, Novak Djokovic continues his bid for Olympics gold in the men’s singles, which has reached the last-16 stage, while Iga Swiatek is in action in the women’s singles following exits for Coco Gauff and Jasmine Paolini.
The tennis competition started Saturday 27 July and runs for just over a week to Sunday 4 August, and there will be gold medals for men’s and women’s singles, men’s and women’s doubles and mixed doubles events.
