The second of tennis' Grand Slam events gets underway on May 25 with the start of the French Open. The clay-court tournament is one where a slower surface speed puts an emphasis on the ability to win extended rallies and play off the baseline rather than relying on a dominant serve.

Monday's schedule for the first round of the 2025 French Open was just announced, and boy does it look exciting.

Carlos Alcaraz begins his title defense on the men's side, while Iga Świątek pursues a fourth straight Roland Garros triumph.
