PARIS (AP) — The Latest from the French Open:

10:50 a.m.

There is no Royal Box at Roland Garros, but the "King of Clay" will be on center court on Day 3 with nine-time champion Rafael Nadal in action.

Top-ranked Novak Djokovic and Serena Williams will also be starting their campaigns in Paris.

Although he won't play before mid-afternoon, The Associated Press spotted Djokovic in an official car on his way to the stadium, shades on, at about 9:30 a.m. Up against Jarkko Nieminen, the Serb is carrying a 22-match winning streak into the tournament where he chases the only Grand Slam title missing from his collection.

Nadal takes on teenager Quentin Halys, who has never played a match at a major tournament, while Serena will try to do better than her older sister Venus, who lost in the first round on Monday.

Bidding for a third title at the French Open, Serena faces qualifier Andrea Hlavackova.

And what about the weather? It should be cloudy but dry most of the day, with a high of 68 degrees F (20 degrees C).
