Martina Navratilova will face Argentinian Gisela Dulko in her French Open comeback next week.
The 47-year-old ended her 10-year absence from the tournament when she requested a wild card. Dulko was not even born when Navratilova clinched the second of her two Roland Garros victories in 1984.
By a twist of fate Navratilova - who has won 18 Grand Slam singles titles - could face a repeat of her last Wimbledon final appearance in the second round. She may meet Spaniard Conchita Martinez, who beat her in the 1994 final in what many thought was Navratilova's final singles match at the All England Club.
Navratilova said recently: What is there to be afraid of? Losing? It's not like I'm getting into the ring with Mike Tyson.
