Former champions Justine Henin and Andre Agassi to present French Open trophies

PARIS (AP) — Former French Open champions Justine Henin and Andre Agassi will present the women’s and men’s singles trophies at Roland-Garros, organizers said Saturday.

Henin won the clay-court Grand Slam four times. Agassi lifted the Coupe des Mousquetaires trophy in 1999. He was also twice runner-up in Paris.

Top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka takes on No. 2 Coco Gauff later Saturday in the women’s final, with the winner receiving the trophy from Henin.

Top-ranked Jannik Sinner will be up against defending champion Carlos Alcaraz in the men’s final on Sunday.
