French Open Glance: Nadal, Thiem try to set up semifinal

A quick look at the French Open:

LOOKAHEAD TO TUESDAY

Rafael Nadal and Dominic Thiem can set up yet another French Open meeting with victories on Tuesday, only this time they would face each other in the semifinals instead of the final. Thiem was the runner-up to Nadal in 2018 and 2019; the man who won the U.S. Open last month is 26-4 at Roland Garros over the past five years, and three of those losses came against Nadal (the other came against Novak Djokovic). No. 2 seed Nadal will wrap up the day’s Court Philippe Chatrier schedule by playing 19-year-old Jannik Sinner of Italy. Sinner is the first man to reach the quarterfinals in his Paris debut since Nadal won the first of his record 12 championships at the clay-court Grand Slam tournament in 2005. No. 3 seed Thiem’s quarterfinal comes earlier in the day against No. 12 Diego Schwartzman. Tuesday’s first contest in the main stadium is the last singles match of the fourth round, postponed from Monday because of rain: No. 30 seed Ons Jabeur of Tunisia against Danielle Collins of the U.S. The women’s quarterfinals are No. 3 Elina Svitolina against Nadia Podoroska and 19-year-old Iga Swiatek against Martina Trevisan.

TUESDAY’S FORECAST

Rain. High of 61 degrees Fahrenheit (16 degrees Celsius).

BOURNEMOUTH, England (AP) — Bournemouth midfielder Tyler Adams is set to return from a quadriceps injury for the Cherries' game at Premier League-leading Arsenal on Saturday.

The 27-year-old U.S. star missed Bournemouth's last two matches as well as two U.S. friendlies over the international break.

“I am feeling strong and ready to go,” Adams, the U.S. captain at the 2022 World Cup, told club media.

Bournemouth manager Andoni Iraola confirmed on Friday that Adams is available and "in a good place."

Staying in Bournemouth to rehab, Adams said, “gave me a period of time to get stronger, get more fit and focus on the objectives with the boys here."

“I’m feeling consistent, I’m feeling strong now and I think it’s just important to finish the season strong," said Adams, who also missed time this season because of an MCL tear.

Bournemouth takes an 11-game unbeaten run in the Premier League to north London. The Cherries' last loss in the league was to Arsenal — 3-2 at home on Jan. 3.

The team is 13th in the standings with seven games left in the season.

Bournemouth's only injured players as of Friday morning, Iraola said, are forward Justin Kluivert and midfielder Lewis Cook.

“I will even have to make difficult decisions because probably (there) will more than 20 ready to travel,” Iraola said.
