Tournament director Amelie Mauresmo said: “The fact that there’s the Champions League final won’t change much for us anyway.
“We are very happy for PSG. We’re trying to do our job organising this tournament.
“Fifteen thousand people will come over here to watch tennis. We’ll try to give them the best possible match.
“All around Roland Garros there will be police department teams that will be rolled out.
“Also safety arrangements will be set-up. Outside the police department and prefecture have done everything, scheduled everything. They’re used to that kind of event.”
Defending champion Iga Swiatek equalled Justine Henin’s mark of 24 consecutive French Open wins with a 6-2 7-5 victory over Romanian Jaqueline Cristian.
