2024 French Open Roland Garros Women's Draw confirmed including Iga Swiatek, Aryna Sabalenka, Elena Rybakina and Coco Gauff
WTA
From May 25 to June 9 2024, the French Open will take place at Roland Garros with the women's draw now confirmed for the start of the second Grand Slam tournament of the season.
Iga Swiatek is the three-time defending champion and will look to become a four time winner. She could open up against Naomi Osaka who faces Lucia Bronzetti in the first round. The World No.1 opens up against a qualifier or lucky loser. Her quarter though is very much stacked. Not only does it feature the former World No.1 but also Barbora Krejcikova, Danielle Collins and Marketa Vondrousova.
Aryna Sabalenka will be a part of the supporting cast aiming to stop the so-called Queen of Clay. She faces the sister of the younger prodigy in Erika Andreeva. Elena Rybakina has been a doubt at times this season with illness. But the fact remains that in event of her playing, she is usually in the business end and she opens up against Greet Minnen. Angelique Kerber could yet await in the second round.
Coco Gauff was a 2022 finalist and will take on a qualifier or lucky loser with Alison van Uytvanck likely to await. Other names to watch include Qinwen Zheng who opens up against the retiring Alize Cornet. Bianca Andreescu has made it into the draw and faces Sara Sorribes Tormo. She could face one of her best friends in Anna Kalinskaya as the seed lurking in her section.

Maria Sakkari opens against Varvara Gracheva with Bernarda Pera or Nao Hibino awaiting. Danielle Collins will face her compatriot Caroline Dolehide and then could face Martina Trevisan or a qualifier. Elina Svitolina opens up a year after her Quarter-Final run against Karolina Pliskova. Victoria Azarenka opens up against Nadia Podoroska and could face Mirra Andreeva in the second round. The 17-year-old opens up against Emina Bektas.
History of Roland Garros
The French Open has a rich history dating back to 1891 when the tournament was first held. It was initially only open to French players, but in 1925, it became an international event. Today, the tournament is widely regarded as one of the most prestigious events in tennis, and it attracts top players from around the world.
The tournament is named after Roland Garros, a French aviator who was the first person to fly across the Mediterranean Sea. The Roland Garros Stadium, where the tournament is held, is named after him, and it has been the venue for the French Open since 1928.

- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.
mandoist09-11-2026 - Ironically, Martina became a U.S. Citizen about the same time as the Orange Convicted Felon & Abuser was just beginning on his road to losing all Daddy's Millions!!mandoist09-11-2026

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension. Just ask WTA employees how that's been going lately as they witness his continued verbal abuses. Women's Pro Tennis should start over.mandoist08-11-2026

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
