Spanish daily AS unsurprisingly carries an image of Rafa Nadal receiving the Olympic torch from Zinedine Zidane.
Nadal is close to Parisian hearts thanks to his 14 French Open victories at Roland Garros.
The 'king of clay' will hope to continue his love affair with the city when he competes alongside Carlos Alcaraz in the men's doubles.

Olympic flag raised upside downpublished at 07:05 British Summer Time 27 July
The Opening Ceremony captured the imagine of the millions of people watching it all unfold on Friday night and a few of you eagle-eyed viewers noticed the Olympic flag was raised upside down.
After a real spectacle took place on the Seine, the flag was handed over and sent high into the sky to mark the start of the Games.
However, the two rings were at the top and the three at the bottom.

BBC Sport in Paris
The 2024 Olympics opened in Paris in spectacular style with thousands of athletes sailing along the River Seine past lively performers on bridges, banks and rooftops in an ambitious take on an opening ceremony.
Swapping a stadium for a waterway for the first time to open the "greatest show on Earth", the near four-hour spectacle culminated in French judo great Teddy Riner and sprinter Marie-Jose Perec lighting a cauldron shaped like a hot air balloon that rose high into the Parisian sky.
Blue, white and red fireworks had raised the Tricolore above Austerlitz Bridge before 6,800 athletes from 205 delegations travelled on 85 boats and barges past some of the French capital's most famous landmarks.
There were surprise performances through the ceremony, including a cabaret number from US singer-songwriter Lady Gaga, as well as an emotional return of Canadian icon Celine Dion.

After a rain-affected opening ceremony last night, it looks like the weather may also have a say on day one.
This could have an impact on some events including skateboarding and tennis.
