2025 French Open Overview
The French Open is the second of four Grand Slam tournaments on the offshore betting tennis calendar each year. Also known as Roland Garros, the French Open brings a hallowed venue and great tradition to the sports betting calendar.
Carlos Alcaraz became the youngest man to win Grand Slam titles on all three surfaces. Following his win over 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 Betting Lines 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. Correlate that 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.
By contrast, on the women’s side, Iga Swiatek claimed her fourth title at Roland Garros. It was her fifth major trophy with a dominant 6-2, 6-1 victory over Jasmine Paolini in just 68 minutes. Now, she has the most Grand Slam titles of any woman on tour, save for Venus Williams. Also, 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.
Additionally, she became the first woman since Justine Henin to win three consecutive Roland Garros titles. Hence she is tied with Henin for third- 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. The clash was relatively straightforward, as were all of the matches following the battle with Osaka. In turn, that uncontrolled emotion proved just how overwhelming the pressure of being the favorite and world No. 1 can be. Now, Iga Swiatek is the new Queen of Clay, having won four of the last five French Open titles. Including a three-peat last year.
Naturally, 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). Additionally, he has more than four times as many titles as anyone else in the Open Era here.
