Reigning champions Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Świątek will strive to defend their titles against formidable competition. Alcaraz currently holds the No. 2 position in the ATP rankings, trailing only Jannik Sinner, and recently reclaimed his second-place spot with a victory at the Italian Open earlier this month. Among those vying for the championship is No. 3 Alexander Zverev, who fell to Alcaraz in last year's final. Additionally, Novak Djokovic is also in contention, boasting three French Open titles to his name, with his most recent triumph occurring in 2023.
The 2025 French Open marks the first time in two decades that Rafael Nadal, the tournament's most successful player, will not be participating due to his retirement last year. In the early rounds of the men's competition, the matchups are expected to be less competitive, but the tension is likely to rise by Round 3. Rising star Carlos Alcaraz may face off against either Ben Shelton or Stefanos Tsitsipas in the fourth round. Meanwhile, Novak Djokovic will begin his campaign against Mackenzie McDonald, with a potential matchup against Denis Shapovalov looming in Round 3.
