Overview
- Aryna Sabalenka beat Naomi Osaka 7-5, 6-3 on Monday to reach the French Open quarter‑finals and will face Diana Shnaider.
- Italian Matteo Arnaldi overturned Frances Tiafoe in a five‑set marathon that lasted five hours and 26 minutes to reach his first major quarter‑final.
- The men's quarter‑final line‑up includes Arnaldi vs. Matteo Berrettini, Flavio Cobolli vs. Felix Auger‑Aliassime, Joao Fonseca vs. Jakub Mensik, and Alexander Zverev vs. Rafael Jodar.
- With Tiafoe's loss there are no American singles players in the last eight for the first time since 2017, while several lower‑ranked and young players have advanced deep into the event.
- Sabalenka is the only remaining former Grand Slam singles champion in either draw and her consistency makes her the clear favorite even as the field has been reshaped by withdrawals, upsets and long, physically taxing matches.
