In Men’s Doubles, Indian fans had reason to cheer as Rohan Bopanna (ATP Doubles World No. 6) and Yuki Bhambri (ATP Doubles World No. 42) made it all the way to the final. Although they didn’t win the title,they narrowly lost to the French pair Pierre-Hugues Herbert (ATP Doubles World No. 11) and Nicolas Mahut (ATP Doubles World No. 15) with a score of:4-6, 6-7(5). Their run was inspiring and showed how strong Indian tennis is in the doubles scene.

New Faces, New Energy
One of the best highlights of this year’s tournament was seeing young and upcoming players step into the spotlight. 17-year-old Mirra Andreeva (WTA World No. 16) from Russia stunned everyone by making it to semifinals, taking down the top players out of her way.
France’s own Arthur Fils (ATP World No. 21), just 19 years old, made a deep run too, making the home crowd go wild with excitement. These young stars are definitely ones to watch.
Big Upsets
Tennis is full of surprises — and this year had a few big ones. Defending men’s champion Novak Djokovic (ATP World No. 3) withdrew in the fourth round with a knee injury. It was disappointing for all fans, but it left room for up-and-coming players to step into the spotlight.
Aryna Sabalenka, a high-seeded player in the women’s field, lost early due to a combination of unforced errors and emotional strain. The tournament quickly became unpredictable — and that made it even more fun to watch.
India’s Tennis Moments (Indians in French Open 2025)
Besides the doubles success, a few Indian junior players also made their mark. Young talents like Aditya Deshmukh (Boys’ World No. 67) and Kavya Bansal (Girls’ World No. 48) reached the second round of their respective draws. It’s wonderful to see India developing a stronger presence at the Grand Slam level.
New Tech and Better Experience
This year, the French Open introduced new tech such as AI-powered line calling, improved live replay angles, and enhancements to the official fan app following the tournament. The tournament also emphasized eco-friendliness, reducing plastic usage and going greener in general.
Off-Court Buzz
There was plenty going down off the court as well — from celebrity sightings within the stands to tearful interviews by players. Fashion was on point, with players flaunting chic attire and creating trends. Roland Garros was not just about tennis — it was a whole vibe!
Conclusion
