Are players going to have to play twice in one day?Yeah. They started play 3 hours earlier today.
I don't think so but all the ones that get through today will play again tomorrow. They'll be no rest day for them.Are players going to have to play twice in one day?

Looks like a few will play twice, including Konta:
Italian Open: Konta beats Stephens but faces Venus Williams in second match of day
It makes it difficult for them with regards to eating and warming up. They are so experienced with this sort of thing that it won't bother them too much.Nothing worse than an outdoors tournament getting ruined due to the weather.
Plays havoc with the rest of the tournament's schedule. I always wonder if the players then lose interest in the event not knowing their correct playing time.
Nick Kyrgios launches astonishing attack on 'cringeworthy' world No 1 Novak Djokovic | Daily Mail Online
Kyrgios isn't holding back. Djokovic and Verdasco are in the firing line today.
Have you seen much of Astra Sharma? She's looks a real talent.Yep, Jo started nervously and Pliskova just served really well throughout. Konta only really had one chance to break, but put a forehand into the top of the net on break point which would have got the first set back on serve at 4-5. Fantastic week for her though and she's won 10 WTA matches on clay these past 3 weeks - more than she had in her entire career combined, and she's now up to #26 so a seed in Paris, meaning she can't face the likes of Pliskova until the 3rd round. Pliskova will certainly be a contender if she serves like that.
Djokovic vs Nadal coming up later as well on Prime, as well as that Wimbledon Court 1 roof opening thing on BBC1 at 2pm.
I think the men's Roland Garros qualifying draw comes out today and the women's tomorrow.

Who we betting on this year @The Bridge Lad
2019 French Open – Women's Singles Qualifying - Wikipedia
So Clarke and J Ward out already, although they were both underdogs, Dart has withdrawn due to a foot injury and Swan faces the 2nd seed who has won a WTA title this past month. Probably relying on Watson for any qualifying win, although she was still playing on hard courts in Japan last Wednesday and hasn't had a clay match yet this year.
