As of May 31, 2026, the French Open men's singles draw has been shaken by the early exits of top contenders Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic. Sinner, the world No. 1 and defending champion, was defeated in the quarterfinals by Carlos Alcaraz in a five-set thriller. Djokovic, a three-time champion at Roland Garros, lost in the third round to a qualifier, ending his bid for a record 25th Grand Slam title.
With Sinner and Djokovic out, the remaining top seeds include Carlos Alcaraz, who is now the favorite, along with Alexander Zverev and Stefanos Tsitsipas. Alcaraz, who won the French Open in 2024, is seeking his third Grand Slam title on clay. Zverev, a finalist in 2024, and Tsitsipas, runner-up in 2021, are also strong contenders.
The women's draw remains unaffected, with Iga Swiatek still the top seed and defending champion. The tournament continues through June 7, with the men's final scheduled for June 8.
