When Flavio Cobolli plays Roland Garros quarterfinals: history with Felix Auger-Aliassime

After beating, in order, Andrea Pellegrino, Wu Yibing, Learner Tien, and Zachary Svajda, Flavio Cobolli has a chance to peel off his ticket to the semifinals of a Slam tournament for the first time in his career: his opponent, in the quarterfinals of Roland Garros 2026, is Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime, who is also looking for a prestigious result in a tournament that has lost several big names along the way, first and foremost Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic, and that could yield more surprises.

The match will be played at the center court, the one named after Philippe Chatrier, and will be the third of the session on Wednesday, June 3.The organization has determined that the match will be played at the end of the women’s quarters, which will see Anna Kalinskaya engaged against Maja Chwalinska and Aryna Sabalenka pitted against Diana Shnaider. Considering the myriad variables, the match between Cobolli and Auger-Aliassime is expected to be played after 3 p.m., a time that is still subject to change.

There are two previous matches between Cobolli and Auger-Aliassime, staged in 2024 and both with the Roman victorious: in the round of 16 of the Acapulco tournament Cobolli won in a comeback 2-6, 6-3, 6-2, while in the 32nd round of the Montreal Masters 1000 he prevailed with a more comfortable 6-3, 6-2. Both challenges were played on concrete: the one in Paris will therefore be the first head-to-head on clay.

The challenge will be televised and streamed on Eurosport, available on the subscription platforms hosting the Warner Bros. Group sports channels. Discovery.
