Are you ready for the next tennis grand slam? The action on the clay courts at Roland-Garros kicks off this Sunday.

PARIS — Caroline Garcia, a former U.S. Open semifinalist who has been ranked as high as No. 4, says she will retire from tennis. As she prepares to play at the French Open for a 14th consecutive appearance, the Frenchwoman said on social media that “it’s time to say goodbye.”

Britain's Jack Draper believes he is in the best mental and physical shape of his career as he returns to the French Open, a tournament where he has yet to win a main draw match, but one he approaches this year with optimism after a transformative 12 months.

Carlos Alcaraz will try to defend his 2024 Roland Garros title at the 2025 French Open, which begins on Sunday. Alcaraz defeated Jannik Sinner in Rome and was a finalist in Barcelona, so it has been a successful clay-court swing for him thus far.

The French Open is entering a new era this year now that Rafael Nadal has retired. Players tend to agree that it is a shame fans no longer will get to see him play at a tournament he won a record 14 times.

Defending champion Carlos Alcaraz and world number one Jannik Sinner resume the hottest rivalry in men's tennis at the French Open, where Novak Djokovic will fly the flag for the old guard as the claycourt Grand Slam enters the post-Rafa Nadal era.

The Spaniard won his first French Open title last year, coming back from two sets to one down to beat Alexander Zverev in five sets and was back at Roland Garros a few weeks later, reaching the final of the 2024 Olympic men’s singles event.

With the second major of the year on the horizon, Britain's tennis stars are gearing up for a shot at glory at Roland Garros.

French tennis player Caroline Garcia, the 2022 WTA Tour Finals champion and former world No. 4, has confirmed that the 2025 French Open will be her last as she “says goodbye” to the sport.

PARIS — Rafael Nadal retired late last season after a career filled with notable accomplishments, including a total of 22 Grand Slam singles titles . Nothing stands out as much, though, as his success at the French Open — which is why there is a statue of him near the main entrance to the tournament site.

Carlos Alcaraz will open his defense of the French Open title against veteran Kei Nishikori. Alcaraz says he is “excited” to be back in Paris on the back of an excellent clay-court season.
