WASHINGTON, DC, USA - Tennis, anyone?

The French Open (Roland Garros) is taking place in Paris this week, and you can watch all the action on a giant 14-foot screen at the Woodrow Wilson Plaza in front of the World Trade Center, Washington, D.C. (Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center) starting today.

It's the 10th anniversary of the Tennis Channel's coverage of the French Open, and so the channel has partnered with Trade Center Management Associates at the World Trade Center, Washington, D.C. to create the first public viewing space in the United States dedicated to the tournament, according to a statement.

First Counsellor Patrick Lachaussee, a representative of French Ambassador H.E. Gerard Araud, will be on hand May 23 to deliver remarks on sports diplomacy and then "flip the switch on the viewing screen," the statement notes.

The screen will broadcast live coverage of the French Open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. from May 23-27.
