The first round of Roland Garros kicks of Sunday, and there are some great opening matches to keep an eye on. Eighth-seeded Milos Raonic will play against Janko Tisparevic, while an unseeded Grigor Dimitrov will try to further bury his epic Istanbul meltdown with a very challenging opener against No. 22 seed Viktor Troicki. Kei Nishikori, who at No. 5 is the highest men's seed playing this weekend, will have his hands full with Simone Bolelli.
