PARIS (Reuters) - World number one Angelique Kerber is out to find a love for clay in Paris on the French Open courts, with the out-of-form German traditionally struggling on this surface.

With the year's second grand slam starting on Sunday, Kerber said she needed to get match practice to return to the form that earned her the world number one ranking last year as well as the Australian Open and U.S. Open titles.
