The Summer Olympics do not carry the same level of clout in the tennis world as other sports. But it is still a big deal. That is especially true given the fact that the pandemic hampered the Tokyo Olympics.
Additionally, the Paris Olympics will serve as the swan song for some of the biggest names in the sport. On Monday morning, we learned the top 16 seeds for the men’s and women’s singles tournaments.
The brackets will feature 64 players, resulting in 16 seeded players. To win the gold, one must win six matches. The top 16 pre-seeded players won’t face each other in the first two rounds. Also, there is a rule that players from the same country cannot face each other in the first two rounds.

There are no major surprises with the seedings as they are similar to current rankings. Tennis fans can follow Sports Illustrated’s Serve on SI for all the most important news from the sport.
