PARIS : Tuesday's highly-anticipated French Open quarter-final between world number one Novak Djokovic and 13-time champion Rafa Nadal has been scheduled to be played during the controversial night session despite the Spaniard expressing reservations against it.

"I don't like to play on clay during the night because humidity is higher, the ball is slower and there can be very heavy conditions especially when it's cold. The match between the Spaniard and the German third seed was put as the third one on Court Philippe Chatrier. Asked about his choice during a TV interview Djokovic said with a smile:"I can only say that Rafa and I would make different applications."
