The second grand slam of the tennis year is here; it’s time for the 2026 French Open.
While the 2025 women’s singles champion, American Coco Gauff, will be back to defend her title, the two-time defending men’s champion will not be at Roland Garros this year. World No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz withdrew from the French Open with a wrist injury that is also taking him out of July’s Wimbledon tournament.
2025 runners-up Aryna Sabalenka and Jannik Sinner enter as the No. 1 seeds in the women’s and men’s draws, respectively. Sinner is entering on a hot streak, having just won the Italian Open. The Italian is 17-0 on clay courts this year.
The prize pool has been a hot topic heading into the tournament, with many players enacting a media strike in protest over the tournament’s revenue split.
