In a momentous occasion for the tennis world, Roland-Garros 2025 has delivered a rare feat not witnessed in over four decades. For the first time since 1984, both the men’s and women’s singles finals will feature the top two-ranked players in the world, underlining the dominance and consistency of the sport’s current elite.
This remarkable milestone marks the first time in the Open Era that the world No.1 and No.2 have reached both singles finals at the French Open since tennis legends John McEnroe, Ivan Lendl, Martina Navratilova and Chris Evert achieved the same in 1984.
On the men’s side, rising superstar and current world No.1 Carlos Alcaraz will face off against the ever-impressive No.2 Jannik Sinner in what promises to be a blockbuster showdown between two of the sport’s brightest young talents.
Meanwhile, the women’s final will be equally compelling as world No.1 Coco Gauff goes head-to-head with No.2 Aryna Sabalenka – a mouth-watering clash of power, precision, and personality.
The alignment of top seeds in both finals reflects not only their individual brilliance but also a broader narrative of excellence and consistency at the highest level of the sport.
As fans around the globe gear up for what could be historic finals, this year’s Roland-Garros is already etching its name into the record books – a testament to the thrilling state of modern tennis.
