L’organisation de Roland-Garros a annoncé que tous les matches de ce mercredi 29 mai seront annulés en raison du mauvais temps à Paris et que les détenteurs des billets seront bien remboursés.

The bad Parisian weather therefore got the better of Wednesday at Roland-Garros. Confirming, if necessary, that the French Tennis Federation had done well to invest in a second roof at Porte d'Auteuil, with that of Suzanne-Lenglen. And that we should probably think about installing a third. 

"Due to the weather conditions, there will be no resumption of matches today on the Simonne-Mathieu court and the short annexes", announced the FFT shortly after 5 p.m.

Viewers refunded

This Wednesday morning, all the matches scheduled on the courts other than Lenglen and Philippe-Chatrier were able to play for 45 minutes before the tarpaulins came to cover the Parisian ocher earth. 

Which means that ticket holders for this day of the second round at Roland-Garros will be fully refunded. "Given that there were less than two hours of play this Wednesday, May 29, ticket holders for the Simonne-Mathieu courts and annexes will be fully reimbursed,” confirmed the FFT in a press release.
