The 2026 French Open, also known as Roland-Garros, has reached its thrilling conclusion in Paris.
Celebrating its 125th edition, this historic Grand Slam remains the only major tournament played on outdoor clay courts.
Matches are held at the iconic Stade Roland-Garros, where fans are also gathering at the new 'Tribune Concorde' fan zone to watch the final rounds.
While the tournament maintains tradition by using human line judges, it has innovated this year by allowing players to wear connected performance-tracking devices.
The men's draw has been unpredictable, especially after the withdrawal of defending champion Carlos Alcaraz and the early exit of world No.
With none of the four semifinalists—Alexander Zverev, Jakub Menšík, Matteo Arnaldi, and Flavio Cobolli—having won a Grand Slam before, a new champion is guaranteed.
The event, which concludes on June 7, has also honored tennis history with special tributes to legends like Althea Gibson.
