In pictures: Kylian Mbappe, Tom Brady and other celebrities in attendance during Novak Djokovic-Casper Ruud French Open final
Novak Djokovic and Casper Rudd's 2023 French Open title clash has seen celebrities from all walks of life come out in force to Court Philippe-Chatrier.
Djokovic and Rudd locked horns in the Roland Garros final on Sunday, June 11. The former is chasing his third title in Paris and a men's record 23rd Grand Slam and the latter is chasing his maiden career Major.
Djokovic clinched the Australian Open title earlier this year to go level with Rafael Nadal on 22 Majors. If he manages to defeat Ruud in the French capital, he will go past the Spaniard and equal Serena Williams' overall tally.
Among the celebrity attendees was American football quarterback Tom Brady, who was seen seated in Djokovic's player box as he cheered for the Serb.
