Tsonga, Bartoli, Domingo... Players and streamers gather at Roland-Garros on Sunday for a good cause

What if the show was played before the men's final this Sunday at Roland-Garros? On Court Simonne-Mathieu, former players and streamers will compete in an exhibition match in favour of the association "Fête Le Mur", created by Yannick Noah, on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of commitment to tennis by official partner BNP Paribas.

The event will take place from 12:30 pm on the new court within the Serres d'Auteuil. On the field, we will find Jo-Wilfried Tsonga and Marion Bartoli, and streamers Domingo and Little Big Whale, the two captains of both teams (Team PA and Team Trivia). Other influencers such as Hugo Délire, Stef Capela and Remeli will also be present alongside "young BNP Paribas talents" and fans invited for the occasion.

Live on Twitch and broken collarbone

The meeting entitled "Advantage: Community" will take place in three sets in a rather special format. The first set will see Tsonga and Bartoli face off in doubles, followed in the final two sets by two singles between streamers and fans. The "Every point counts" mechanism launched by BNP Paribas at the beginning of the fortnight will be deployed again since each point scored during the match will be transformed into a donation of 50 euros for "Fête le Mur". The association, created by Yannick Noah, aims to introduce and perpetuate the practice of tennis in working-class neighborhoods.

Spectators will also be able to increase the prize pool during the match. And it should be numerous, since nearly 1,000 places were made available free of charge until Wednesday, by draw. Those who don't have the chance to attend will still be able to watch it remotely and live, on Domingo's Twitch channel.

The streamer with 1.7 million followers, who was supposed to participate in the match, will finally be present as a simple guest. The fault of a broken collarbone. "The collarbone puts me in the on a big thing. Next Sunday, I have a live at Roland-Garros where I was supposed to play. I'm going to need a foal to replace me. Who wants to be the chosen one and tread the Simonne-Mathieu? " launched Domingo on Twitter, before finally finding a shoe to his foot.
