Djokovic Targets 25th Grand Slam and Records
Novak Djokovic arrives at the French Open 2025 in strong form, recently reaching the final of the Geneva Open, closing in on his milestone 100th ATP title. Djokovic, currently holding 24 Grand Slam singles titles, is on the cusp of making more history. A victory in Paris would grant him a record-breaking 25th major singles title, an achievement unmatched in the history of men’s tennis.
The Serbian star’s bid for another Roland Garros crown comes after a season marked by fierce competition. Djokovic faces a field that includes not only favorites Alcaraz and Sinner, but also Britain’s Jack Draper and other notable challengers, all seeking their own place in the sport’s annals.
Alcaraz and Sinner Lead Youth Challenge
Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz and Italian Jannik Sinner are entering the French Open as the bookmakers’ favorites for the men’s title. Alcaraz, already a Grand Slam champion, will look to solidify his growing reputation as the sport’s next superstar. Sinner, known for his consistency on all surfaces, seeks to build on his recent major successes. As the ATP Tour notes, both young stars are chasing further major breakthroughs at Roland Garros.
Swiatek, Other Stars Make Winning Starts

Nadal’s farewell, recognized by players and fans alike, brings extra poignancy to this year’s tournament as a new generation rises to the challenge on clay.
