Overview
- The Roland Garros draw was finalized on May 21 with world No. 1 Jannik Sinner seeded to the top half and Novak Djokovic placed in the opposite half so they can meet only in the final.
- Coco Gauff will begin her title defense against Taylor Townsend in the first round and faces a projected path that could put her against Aryna Sabalenka in a late-stage match.
- Two-time defending champion Carlos Alcaraz will not play at Roland Garros because of a wrist injury and he has also withdrawn from Wimbledon.
- The Professional Tennis Players Association has active U.S. court filings seeking credentials and has announced a ‘work-to-rule’ plan to limit media duties, a move that could change how players speak to press during the tournament.
- Organizers raised prize money with singles champions set to earn $3.2 million, approved a trial allowing Whoop wearables at Grand Slams, and Turner/HBO Max will provide full broadcast and streaming coverage.
