2025 French Open Tennis Online Betting
The French Open is the second of four Grand Slam tournaments on the tennis calendar each year. Also known as Roland Garros, the French Open brings a hallowed venue and great tradition to the sports betting calendar. It is one of the most popular tennis betting events held annually. The French Open brings optimism and good cheer as being symbolic of the start of summer. Since 2017, the French Open has been dominated by Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic. In that span, Nadal has five French Open titles, and Djokovic has three. In 2024, Carlos Alcaraz snapped that dominance with a win over Alexander Zverev. On the women’s side, Iga Swiatek is the three-time defending champion with four wins in the previous five French Opens.

Carlos Alcaraz became the youngest man to win Grand Slam titles on all three surfaces after defeating Alexander Zverev in five sets to capture the 2024 French Open. The two battled for 4 hours, 19 minutes, but Alcaraz came through 6-3, 2-6, 5-7, 6-1, 6-2. His 2024 French Open title sits alongside his triumphs at the 2022 US Open and at last year's Wimbledon.
The triumph secures Alcaraz's spot in tennis history, as he becomes the seventh player to win a Slam event on all three surfaces -- following in the footsteps of Jimmy Connors, Mats Wilander, Andre Agassi, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic. But he's the youngest to achieve the feat, having turned 21 in May. Nadal completed his trio at 22 years and 7 months when he won the 2009 Australian Open.
Alcaraz said the French Open meant the most to him, given that he came into the competition with injury concerns.
On the women’s side, Iga Swiatek claimed her fourth title at Roland Garros and fifth major trophy with a dominant 6-2, 6-1 victory over Jasmine Paolini in just 68 minutes. She now has the most Grand Slam titles of any woman on tour, save for Venus Williams, and she joined Roger Federer and Monica Seles as the only players in the Open Era to win all five of their first major final appearances.
She became the first woman since Justine Henin to win three consecutive Roland Garros titles, and is tied with Henin for the third-most singles titles among women at the tournament in the Open Era.
But what Swiatek revealed after her match over Naomi Osaka made this victory different from all those before. While the clash was relatively straightforward, as were all of the matches following the battle with Osaka, that uncontrolled emotion proved just how overwhelming the pressure of being the favorite and world No. 1 can be.

It's all about Rafael Nadal at Roland Garros. He has won 14 French Open titles, and it's hard to see anyone ever running him down. Nadal has more than twice as many victories at the one clay court major than the next closest player (Bjorn Borg), and he has more than four times as many titles as anyone else in the Open Era here.
The only other active player with multiple French Open wins is Novak Djokovic. Although Djokovic was the No. 1 ranked player in the world for over seven years, he didn’t win his first Grand Slam title here until 2016. Djokovic beat Andy Murray in four sets in 2016 and overcame dropping the first two sets to best Stefanos Tsitsipas for the title in 2021. He won his third French Open title in 2023, beating Casper Ruud in straight sets

*Court won five French Open titles in her career, but her first two were a part of the amateur era in 1962 and 1964.
American Chris Evert is largely considered one of the best clay-court players in the history of women's tennis. Evert claimed seven titles over 13 years at the French Open.
Steffi Graf challenged Evert, but her six titles weren't quite good enough to pass her. Had Justine Henin played longer, she could have perhaps challenged both. She won four titles in five years from 2003 through 2007 at the French Open and was a fantastic clay court player.
Serena Williams has the most French Open titles of any active player, but this is her least successful Grand Slam, with only three titles in her 20 years on tour. Iga Swiatek is the new Queen of Clay, having won four of the last five French Open titles including a three-peat last year.
