French Open 2025 schedule, live timings (IST), live streaming, telecast

The second tennis Grand Slam tournament of 2025, the French Open, is all set to take centre stage at the iconic Roland Garros, starting Sunday, May 25, and concluding on Sunday, June 8.

 

The 2025 French Open will be the first time in 20 years that the most successful player in its history, Rafael Nadal, will be absent following the Spaniard’s retirement last year. However, the event still features many exciting names, as reigning champions Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Swiatek return to defend their titles—though neither enters as World No. 1. Alcaraz sits second behind Jannik Sinner, who faces Arthur Rinderknech in Round 1. Swiatek, now ranked No. 5 after a challenging stretch, will look to reclaim her dominance. Aryna Sabalenka leads the women’s rankings, with Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula close behind. 

 

 

Early men’s matchups are relatively less competitive, but the action could heat up by Round 3. Alcaraz might face Ben Shelton or Stefanos Tsitsipas in the fourth round, while Novak Djokovic opens against Mackenzie McDonald and could potentially meet Denis Shapovalov in Round 3. With shifting rankings and emerging threats, the 2025 French Open promises high-stakes drama and potential upsets as the clay-court battles unfold in Paris.
