The 2025 French Open is the second Grand Slam of the year. The prestigious event is welcoming the world's best players to Paris this week.
Novak Djokovic, Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev all made smooth starts in the first round without dropping a set, with sixth seed Djokovic beating Mackenzie McDonald 6-3, 6-3, 6-3 to extend his record at Roland Garros to 20 straight opening-round wins.
In the women's event, the two American players Coco Gauff and Jessica Pegula also won easily in their opening matches. They are looking forward to a sublime week of competition and a deep advance at Roland Garros 2025.
However, in addition to impressive performances, many famous players disappointed right from the first round.
Djokovic has 20th consecutive opening win at Roland Garros
Roland Garros 2025 witnessed a series of big shocks. Grigor Dimitrov, the 16th seed, was forced to retire due to a thigh injury, despite leading Ethan Quinn. Hubert Hurkacz was unexpectedly eliminated quickly by young player Joao Fonseca with a score of 0-3.
In particular, 11th seed Daniil Medvedev continued to suffer from clay court "curse" when he lost to Cameron Norrie after 5 tense sets, marking the 6th time he was eliminated in the first round of this tournament.
However, the most surprising and helpless defeat belonged to the 29th seed, Felix Auger-Aliassime (Canada), who suffered the most painful defeat of the day. Despite leading Matteo Arnaldi by 2 sets, he was still overturned after more than 4 and a half hours of play.
Medvedev failed for the sixth time in the opening round of the tournament.
In the women's category, Karolina Muchova, who reached the Roland Garros final, also stopped early after losing to Alycia Parks.
These results made the third day of competition one of the most surprising days of this year's tournament.
